The DYCC is currently closed to hirers
Diss Town Council is considering the current and potential future use of the DYCC and its other key properties, specifically the Town Council Offices and Diss Sports Ground.
We are inviting residents to complete a short survey to gain an initial understanding of local opinion and to help inform further work to be carried out on the building.*
Diss Town Council has been successful in being awarded a UK SPF Pride in Place Community Grant, which will cover the costs of a feasibility study to determine the future of the Diss Youth & Community Centre.
The Grant is funded by the UK Government through the UK Shared Prosperity Funding (UKSPF) programme.
We have appointed FMG Consulting Ltd to undertake this feasibility study, which will consider several options, determine the likely demand for community facilities, engage with stakeholders & provide projected levels of income and operating costs to ensure best value for the community. The Town Council will continue to work alongside South Norfolk District Council who have been supportive of the process and the outcomes of the study should be known before the end of the year.
*Hard copies of the residents' survey are also available at our drop-in sessions at Morrisons (10am–12pm, 29th & 30th November, 13th & 14th December) and on the Market Place (20th December, 10am–12pm) and via the Town Council Offices.
