Hampshire County Council announced on 27 September 2022 its intention to close and sell Haven House visitor centre and Haven Cottage, which had been listed in January 2022. A massive campaign saw 13,600 signatures on the petition and 3000 emails and letters to the Executive Member objecting to the closure, but they counted for nothing with Hampshire County Council who took the decision on 8 December to close Haven House on 23 December 2022 and sell both it and Haven Cottage.
Their plans had to be held back, however, as on 11 November 2022 Fareham Borough Council had approved the listing of Haven House as an Asset of Community Value, meaning that Haven House could not be marketed for six months, during which time only a community interest group could bid for it.

Meanwhile Hampshire & Isle of Wight Wildlife Trust has expressed its interest in acquiring both Titchfield Haven Nature Reserve and Haven House, working with the local community, who plan to establish a Charitable Incorporated Organisation Titchfield Haven Community Hub to work alongside the WildlifeTrust.
​
Hampshire County Council have made a commitment to co-operate fully with the Wildlife Trust and the local community and negotiations will begin in early January 2023.
