    Thameside Complex Review July 2015 Contents Chair’s Introduction 2 Introduction 3 Purpose and Aims of the Thameside Complex Review Panel 4 Membership 4 Timeline of Review 5 What is the Thameside Complex? 6 What Residents think of the Thameside Complex and its Services 7 - Is the Thameside Complex an attractive building? 8 - Is the Thameside Complex best placed in Grays? 9 - Key Concerns 9 - What People like about the Thameside Complex 10 - What People do not like about the Thameside Complex 10 What are the challenges facing the Thameside Complex - The Complex 11 - The Museum 14 - The Registry Office 16 - The Thameside Theatre 17 - Library 20 Conclusions and Recommendations 22 Appendix 1 – Thameside Complex Survey Results 1 Chair’s Introduction As councillors we value the artistic and cultural impact the Thameside Complex has on both Grays and Thurrock as a whole. It was with eagerness we embarked on this review as every member of the Panel felt it important to understand and progress the issues involved with the Complex. The Corporate Overview and Scrutiny Committee, who originally established the Panel, thought it extremely important that all political parties had a voice on the Panel as the Thameside Complex is for all and everyone. The original chair of the Panel, Councillor Charles Curtis, lost his seat in the 2015 local elections so I stepped up to the position from mid-May 2015 onwards to finalise our recommendations. During the review it struck me how many residents were concerned that the Council was seeking to do away with either the building or the services at the Complex.

What is culture? 2. Who is the strategy for? 3. Context 3.1. Local 3.2. National 4. Aims, objectives and outcomes COVER IMAGES Clockwise from top: Children’s athletics at Hornchurch stadium; adult arts at Fairkytes Arts Centre; Harold Wood Library, one of ten libraries in Havering; wildflower meadow created by Havering Parks on Queen’s Theatre Green 2 A NEW CULTURE STRATEGY FOR HAVERING 2019-22 Executive Summary The new Culture Strategy for Havering is a framework that will inform future directions for culture and cultural activities in Havering. Previously, although there has been significant cultural activity within Havering, there has not been an up-to-date strategic context within which the diverse provision and opportunities that exist can sit. Culture touches upon many peoples’ lives in Havering and significantly contributes to the quality of life and health and well-being of residents and visitors to our borough. The Culture Strategy is fundamental to meeting the needs of the wider community. The strategy has been developed through a five part consultation process: 1. A series of seven public workshops held in venues across the borough. 2. A number of one-to-one meetings with representatives of individual organisations and stakeholders across the borough. 3. An online consultation questionnaire which the public responded to, developed in consultation with the new Cultural Stakeholders advisory group and promoted through social media and partner organisations.
