Help shape the future of Hebden Bridge Picture House

Hebden Bridge Picture House is a much-loved, 100+ year-old Grade II listed cinema, one of the few of its kind still run for its community. We are at the early stages of developing plans to restore, improve and future-proof the building, and we are applying to the National Lottery Heritage Fund to help make this possible. We want to:
  • Protect the cinema’s unique heritage and share its story.
  • Make the building more accessible and welcoming for everyone.
  • Support local jobs, volunteering and new skills.
  • Inspire young people and families - the audiences of tomorrow.
  • Make the building greener, reducing energy use and running costs.
  • Strengthen the not-for-profit cinema as a community hub for films, festivals and events.

Please take a few minutes to share your thoughts in this short survey.

Your views will help shape our Lottery funding application and the future of the cinema. Your responses will be anonymous.
