Public invited to help shape plans for Hebden Bridge Picture House
The public is being invited to help shape plans for Hebden Bridge Picture House at drop-in events on Monday.
The sessions run from 12pm to 2pm and 4pm to 6pm. No booking is needed and free refreshments will be available.
The Picture House, owned by Hebden Royd Town Council, is developing proposals to protect and improve the not-for-profit cinema, and the drop-in events give the community a chance to view emerging designs, hear the latest project updates and share feedback.
The feedback gathered will help shape the proposals and will feed into an application to the National Lottery Heritage Fund.
Attendees can view the proposed designs and emerging plans, find out what’s been discussed so far and what’s coming next, chat with the project team, ask questions and share feedback.
Councillor Keith Butterick, chair of the Picture House Committee, said: “Our main priorities are protecting the cinema’s heritage and improving access so more people can enjoy this much-loved community venue.
"We’re also exploring environmental improvements and proposals for a second screen to increase programming flexibility and support the cinema’s long-term financial sustainability.
"We’d encourage everyone to drop in, see the emerging plans and share their views, which will help shape the project and support our National Lottery Heritage Fund application.”
People who can’t attend in person can still find out more and take part by completing the short online survey at www.hebdenbridgepicturehouse.co.uk/heritageproject.
