Wrexham University is embarking on a crucial RIBA Stage 1 Feasibility Study for William Aston Hall, a prominent cultural and civic venue situated on its Plas Coch campus in Wrexham, UK. Operated in partnership with Theatr Clwyd, the hall serves as a vital hub for community and artistic events. This initial stage, supported by funding from the Arts Council of Wales Arts Capital Investment Fund and the University, will involve a comprehensive appraisal of the existing venue. The study's primary objective is to meticulously evaluate various aspects including the audience journey, auditorium functionality, technical theatre infrastructure, backstage areas, and ensuring robust access and inclusion. Consultants will also consider heritage constraints, building services, and operational implications. The brief requires the development and comparison of multiple options, complete with broad cost ranges, advised phasing strategies, and an assessment of potential delivery risks. The core services for this Stage 1 study are capped at a maximum budget of £50,000 including VAT, with completion expected by 19 February 2027. While the focus is on Stage 1, there is a discretionary option for the university to extend the appointment for a Stage 2 Concept Design, subject to funding and satisfactory performance.
