Omihi Hall Re-Build – Feasibility Study, Omihi Hall Trust
After the tragic loss of the Omihi Hall in North Canterbury to fire in 2015, we worked with the Omihi Hall Trust Committee (the same set of families who formed the Trust in the 1920’s) to look at what viable solutions were on offer to provide a community hub. We worked alongside the local community to understand the current and future needs and provided a series of practical options for discussion and debate, literally around the kitchen table. The resulting hall (pictured below) is soon to open and we are chuffed that this community invited us to the roof shout.
We believe communities of all shapes and sizes have a right to participate in recreation and sport. This work highlights the need to look for fit for purpose solutions that meet the needs of the community you are operating in. One size does not fit all.
