The Hallmark Quality Mark is a quality standard for Village Halls and Community Centres and can be the first step that committees take when considering growing and developing their organisation.
There are 3 levels that community buildings can achieve which focus on different areas of the organisation.
A certificate valid for three years is issued once each Hallmark level has been achieved and each building is given a report highlighting where they are following best practice and any recommendations for improvements.
The quality mark is fully funded so is free for trustee boards to complete and gives volunteers, funders and their communities the reassurance that their organisation is committed to good governance.
