A ceremony was held this morning to mark the start of work on the new community hall for Whitchurch. Whitchurch Councillor Alison Wall, Portfolio Holder for Leisure & Culture on Basingstoke & Deane Borough Council, announced that the building is to be named The Gill Nethercott Community Centre. This commemorates Gill's role in ensuring that the project is happening, starting with a Community Profile for Whitchurch 15 years ago.
Gill Nethercott announced this week that she is standing down from the Borough Council because she is no longer physically able to fulfil her duties. Gill was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease in 2004.
