Pittington Village Hall Community Survey

Pittington Village Hall Association are currently working with Durham County Council to take on the Asset Transfer of Pittington Village Hall which we are currently managing in order to keep the facility available for our community well in to the future. As part of this process we need to find out what our local community thinks of the service and facilities we currently provide, how likely you are to use the centre in the future and what you would like to use it for.

We would be grateful if you would be willing to share your views with us by answering this short survey. You don\'t have to give you name if you don\'t want to.
