Please see below the vision for this big renovation project of a derelict building for use by the community. Further details in the  share offer brochure and the new business plan September 2011.

Our vision is for a centre of excellence for sustainability and the arts, using environmentally sound building practices, where: people can learn about sustainable restoration of buildings; new social enterprises can be supported and nurtured with affordable workshops and offices; and local and international artists can perform and display their work. 

The development is being done in a spirit of imagination and collaboration, with a frugal approach, which means combining what this amazing building already offers, with the energy of local people. Young people are a key part of the vision, being involved in all stages, from development and management to becoming users of the building.
