Redevelopment results

community.

Central amenities for local residents. A hub for locals to attend, that contains a wide variety of information all in one place.

I think the library is essential also the police station. I suppose Victor Hodges site would be ok for housing rather than on greenbelt land.3 Space to showcase, creative/artistic work produced by local groups, and individuals. A permanent home for Southam's Cardall Collection to include storage and display space.

I think Victor Hodges House-should be kept as it was meant for. accommodation, made slightly bigger units so that elderly people, especially couples, it may even solve a problem with housing for young people as elderly people may want or need to give up houses or bungalows (housing association), that is. Also Mr Victor Hodges past councillor, also one of the best he was one of my Sunday school teachers. You may realise I was born in Southam.

The library should be kept as a library as it is central. The police station has no use at all now, why no t develop it into small s hops at reasonable rents or youth club as the other was knocked down, maybe keep some of the yobs of the streets and pay people to run it.

Clothes shops, mens wear, ladies wear, children’s wear, wool shop/craft shop.

We would like an Asda or Sainsburys in the middle of town, as you cannot buy clothes in Southam or shoes, Tesco is on the outskirts of Southam you need transport to visit it. So it would bring more trade to the centre of town to support other shops, people would not need to go to Leamington if Southam had a good Asda or Sainsburys.

Police station, internet cafe, library (should actually be a separate building), shoe shop, locksmith/shoe repair. Easy access for pushchairs/wheelchairs, free seating area, butchers shop?? delicatessen.

A heritage centre, exhibition/work space, free wi-fi, public aren't, locally produced product "shop", performance area, cycle parking. It is the responsibility of community space to engage and improve upon a communities existing strengths.

Somewhere to sit and have a chat, also the road coming from Park fields into Little park and then up Park Lane, The traffic is horrific and certain periods of the day, and the part by the church, where the wall is, you have to pull into the path to get through it. It is far to narrow and more traffic would be horrific.

Shops, library, bistro evening opening - alternative to the pubs, police presence. Local council and town council, advisory desk.

I think the library should stay where it is. The police station is ok where it is, but open. Victor Hodges should reopen to care for the residents of Southam like it used to.

Low cost room/space for hire and/or youth/teenage facility and Cardall Collection exhibition and storage/archive space. This is community history.

Library - vital for the area, more could be done to encourage children to use the facilities there, for example a safe area for homework. My older son used to go there everyday and do his homework-the staff were very welcoming. I know a number of children who would appreciate this still.

We still need to retain the library and police station, although the police station could be a lot smaller. As long as there is sufficient capacity for elderly sheltered accommodation, I don't believe this area should include housing.

Accommodation like Victor Hodges is fine but I would not want to see private or social housing. We also don't need any more supermarkets in the town! It has to be a community based space that benefits the whole community, young and old.

Library (including IT suite). WCC contact point (plus councillor surgery). Police contact point. C.A.B. Local information for residents. Local information for tourists.

Library with decent children’s area with activities. As a mother of two preschool children the library is the only place to go in Southam in bad weather. Some shops would be nice-based around children/books/clothes. Child friendly cafe.

Southam needs sheltered housing, library and police station because of its size. Town centre shops must have incentive to remain open, police station should be open 24/7.

Flexibility of space in large cafe area so that it could be partitioned off if required for small meetings or social functions. A room for the Cardall Collection-large enough for storage and an area for research. Cases or areas in library or cafe area for Cardall displays which hopefully would be changed every few months.

A shop like Burtons etc that you can buy a tie or shirt, or general things for us ladies-tights, swimwear, blouse etc.

Have to travel for everything. Stratford council tax, but none of Stratford’s shops!

Definitely a library, for all sections of the population plus a police station. There are cafes in the town already so a cafe is not essential. Access to advice (but in a confidential area, e.g. private room) would be useful.

Benches for sitting, flower tubs, blossom trees, flower beds, if there is room a special feature like a floral clock like they use to have years ago in Jephson Gardens HSPA. I do not like the Victor Hodges House was closed I think the money could have been spent to make it bigger. It is in an ideal place for old age pensioners, all the shops were on hand post office Co-Op and new Watton Lodge is very nice but a long way for old people to walk to the shops all the way up the long hill. Mr Victor Hodges work very hard
