- Restoration of the auditorium.
- Providing ancillary services to the auditorium, including cloakroom, WCs and bars.

- Developing and maximising commercial operations in Cafe, Bars, Retail and event spaces.
- Improvements to the local public realm around the Pavilion and better connection to Bexhill Town Centre.
