We are Snitterfield Actioning Climate Change and are a group of residents supported by the Parish Council, tasked with reducing the carbon footprint of the village through education and practical measures.
We have been running for 3 years and have organised many initiatives including energy saving events, a film screening, energy studies on community buildings etc. and are currently working with the energy saving trust on their energy doctor programme.
We have a website www.snitterfield.acc.org
We are 8 volunteers currently, but would love help from anyone with some time to spare. We meet monthly in Snitterfield. We work with the community and are continually making grant applications and would like help keeping our website up to date.
The District includes Stratford, Shottery and Tiddington along with the rural area stretching out to the County boundary to the south-west and taking in Welford on Avon, Newbold-on-Stour and Shipston-on-Stour.
This is a large hall comprising two badminton courts, a large stage and dressing rooms, a foyer/reception area, smaller hall, bar, kitchen, servery area, and good size toilets.
The MAIN HALL is licensed for 400 people, 250 seated. (See gallery photo)
There are approximately 30 tables and 400 chairs available.
There are disabled facilities.
The SMALL HALL, called the Holden room is licensed for 120. It seats 70 comfortably. This is ideal for meetings and social events. (See gallery photo)
There is a non stocked bar facility, which can serve both halls.
We also have the SERVERY, a room which can be used for small meetings or training sessions and can seat up to 25 people. This has been completely refurbished.
There is a public address system available at no extra cost.
There is a completely new KITCHEN, which includes a six hob gas cooker, electric oven and crockery for up to 100 people.
The hall is used regularly for badminton, drama productions, concerts, dancing and meetings and is very suitable for weddings and parties.
We have entertainment licences for drama, playing live music, recorded music, dance and films and we can provide an alcohol licence if required.
There is some off road parking for event organisers at the hall. Outside there is street parking, with a limit of 2 hours in the daytime, but free parking after 6.00pm in the evening; however it is only a five minute walk to three car parks, with over 300 spaces.
