HQ Project

You will see below the first plan and renders of a possible HQ for Menston S & G. We held a consultation for the general public on 6th Jan (thank you to all who attended and gave their input), plus another for leaders on 4th May, and it became clear that whilst there is a lot to love, there were some drawbacks with the current design and so it was proposed that we develop a design B that has a different aspect and layout and then we can decide between the two. I think the narrowness of the site and the long wishlist makes it difficult and there will always be compromises. But offering two designs gives a chance to weigh up what really matters.

Any and all comments welcomed at this stage.

This is such an important opportunity to design and create a purpose built space that will really cater to our needs and take us into the future of Scouting and Guiding in menston. We envisage a building that will be an attractive addition to our local park and a community resource that we can all be proud to have. Whilst the fundraising will be a long road, it is worth getting this right and this will be a Scout & Guide HQ that could last well into the next century.
