In addition, the community-focused East stand will drive active involvement in grassroots sport by addressing specific social needs via targeted education opportunities for young adults, and supporting charitable organisations operating in Bath.

Stadium for Bath held a consultation on the emerging concept designs in July. Over 1000 people attended this event in person, with a further 16,000 people engaging online via social media and the Stadium for Bath website. The project team has since collated all feedback received during this time and fed it directly back into the design process.

Following this, a preferred scheme from the emerging concepts has been developed.

In order to progress these plans to both regenerate the riverside and create new world-class facilities for everyone to enjoy at the Rec, Stadium for Bath is launching the final round of consultation.

The public exhibition will be held in the Brunswick Room at the Guildhall in the centre of the city, from 12:00pm to 6:00pm on Wednesday 5^th, 11:00am – 7:00pm, Thursday 6^thDecember and Friday 7^th December and 10:00am to 4:00pm on Saturday 8^thDecember.

At the event there will be the opportunity to speak with members of the project team, ask questions and give feedback on the developed concept design.

For those who are unable to attend the event, all of the information will also be available via www.stadiumforbath.com along with an online feedback form.

Chief Executive of Bath Rugby Tarquin McDonald said:

“For the past two years we have been engaging with our neighbours, local community groups, schools, businesses and the those that live and work here in this fantastic city. We have listened to their feedback and fed it all into the design process. We believe that we now have a developed design that is befitting to both our iconic location in the heart of the city and Bath’s World Heritage status.

“This is an incredibly important consultation for Stadium for Bath’s vision to create a new destination that everyone can use and enjoy. I urge you to either come and see the consultation in person or go online, we will get this right if we all work together.”

Stadium for Bath is the project that brings together Bath Rugby, Bath Rugby Foundation and Arena 1865. For more information click here.
