Alongside our consultants Lifschutz Davidson Sandilands we have developed a programme of improvements to transform the community and leisure facilities next to Henry Cort Drive. This project area is now called Fareham Park following a public consultation.

We need the help of the community to develop the vision for a new, larger, and flexible community centre able to respond to local needs and support the work of
organisations and residents' activities.
Phase 1: Relocate and improve the existing play and recreational facilities next to the existing community centre to the edge of the Recreation Ground to the
southern side of Henry Cort Drive.
Works are expected to start week commencing 21st October 2024 and the new facilities will be open in early 2025. Check out the design here! (3 MB) You can also take a look around on the 3d image here.
Phase 2: A new, energy-efficient, larger, and fit-for-purpose community centre; accessible toilets to service the football pitches;
a replacement pétanque court and car parking for the new leisure and community facilities.
affordable homes being developed in a variety of tenures.
£700,000 from the Government's UK Shared Prosperity fund has been allocated to help deliver the Masterplan and Phase 1 of this project.
We are exploring options for more external funding to be able to provide the community centre and facilities and have secured a bid writer to help us do this.
