Background
Our current headquarters building is now over 65 years old. It has lasted us well, but is now showing signs of its' age. The asbestos roof is leaking, wall blocks are crumbling, the kitchen and toilets are in poor condition, its' poorly thermal properties make it expensive to heat. In addition it is not large enough for the group, and lacks suitable facilities to make it usable by other community groups.
We need to raise a substantial sum of money, at least £250,000 in 3 years to build a new headquarters.
Current Situation
October 2019 we signed a 25 year lease with Broxtowe Borough Council.

The Exec committee had a presentation from an architect who had some very interesting design ideas.
