In 1988-89, Action Hampshire (formerly known as Hampshire Council of Community Services) supported a group of residents in Hordle to establish Hordle Community Association and construct a new sports and community pavilion in their village.

Community Advisor Penny Velander met with the committee and advised them about establishing as a charity, which they did in 1989, and how to seek funding. The pavilion was funded by national lottery.
