Updates


As of 17th March 2026 at 9:20am


  • Timescales: The project is due to finish early April. We apologise for the inconvenience to all users and neighbours.
  • Works: Progress to the roof construction phase has been restricted due to National Grid outstanding works. Other works continue to make progress to the project.
  • Removal of personal property: As the new storage area is soon to be available, it is a good time to consider removing all personal property from the Centre so that unwanted or forgotten property can be disposed of. All users and stakeholders are requested to remove any personal property from the Centre storage cupboard by {date to be advised}. Any items remaining after this date will be considered unclaimed and may be disposed of. If you are a regular user or group, we will move equipment and property over to the new storage area in due course.
  • The car park is uneven so please watch your footing. The chippings will return once significant progress has been made.
  • New heating system has been installed and the temporary heaters have been removed. Initiate heating using the +1 hour button only for the desired area. Do not modify programme.
  • The car park is unavailable until further notice due to block materials being delivered and increased site traffic. Please do not use the car park and be mindful of vehicle movements to and from the site.
  • Access to the main hall via the slipway and steps rather than across the car park.
  • Please follow all on-site signage and be aware of an increased amount of contractor and delivery vehicle activity.
  • We will continue to post updates here and as the project progresses.
  • Users of the Centre are encouraged to review the additional risk assessments in your booking form effective from Monday 17th November.


Boscastle Community Centre Extension Project

We’re pleased to share that the Boscastle Community Centre extension project will be completing on site very soon, following the award of £121,375 in grant funding and £13,125 funded by the Centre capital reserves.


This exciting project is supported by the UK Shared Prosperity Fund through Cornwall Council’s Community Levelling Up Programme, with additional support from the Cornwall Community Capacity Fund.

About the Project


The works will:

  • Create new storage at hall level to make the main hall safer and more flexible for community use.
  • Improve accessibility throughout the building, ensuring it remains inclusive for all.
  • Upgrade energy efficiency to make the Centre more sustainable for the future.


These improvements will help ensure the Centre continues to serve Boscastle for years to come as a welcoming, accessible, and environmentally responsible community hub.

What to Expect During the Works


Work is expected to begin mid-November 2025 and continue through to the end of the year (with completion by early April 2026, weather permitting).


Access and parking:


  • Car parking on site will be limited during the works.
  • Please observe any temporary parking restrictions or contractor access zones.
  • Follow site safety signage and only use designated entry points.


Noise and disruption:


  • Some short-term noise and disruption will occur while construction takes place.
  • We’ll do our best to minimise inconvenience and coordinate activities around regular bookings.


Hall and room availability:


  • The main hall will remain open for most of the construction period, but some dates may require restricted access or closure.
  • Regular user groups will be contacted directly about any booking changes or temporary arrangements.

Stay Updated


This page will be updated throughout the construction period with news and any temporary changes affecting Centre access or bookings. Please do check it ahead of your booking or usage.
