Our Big Build...
For over 12 months we have been working closely with Lancashire county council to secure the use of Brunshaw Youth Club, through Lancashire county councils asset transfer service, this allows Charter House to take ownership of a building, to provide and extend our services for at least the next 125 years.
On taking ownership of the premises, Charter House will invest over £50,000 within the next 12 months, making alterations to the new building to maintain our level of service, creating a large new sensory room and a larger activity area providing more services.
We have been working alongside “The Big Issue investment”, “The Reach Fund” and are also awaiting a lottery grant.
We estimate that the move will take no longer than 2-4 months, we assure our members that our services will continue with no disruption to the day to day activities.
We will keep you up-to-date with any developments as soon as we are aware of any news.
