Project

Nomad occupied the Old Halifax building in Hastings from September 2009 to April 2010 with support from the Meanwhile Project and Hastings Borough Council.

In Hastings, the Meanwhile Project has been working alongside the Council’s Retail Vitality
scheme and has considered a wide range of projects jointly.


After a series of small-scale projects – including fumigating a shop to get rid of pigeons – we worked on the Old Halifax Building. One of the most prominent buildings in the town centre, it was bought freehold by the café next door who wanted a meanwhile use to tide them over and
help develop footfall while they waited for planning permission.
