Only one week left to handover!

The work on drains and front entrance ramps and steps continues. Screeding over the heating pipes has started and already covers a goodly part of the admin block, as well as the creche area. By the end of today I would expect that to be completed.

Timber cladding for the rear wall has arrived and should be in place by the end of this week. Hardcore laid for part of the path between the front entrance and the car park. Still a fair number of glass panels to be installed, to say nothing of the doors! Further assurances that all will be ready by the 13th, excluding the car park.


Screed in place in general store, small toilet,
and meeting room.

Corridor and other meeting room screeded.

Office screeded.

Heating pipes over the lobby, terminating
until we do the main hall. Need to drill access
through blocks, not steelwork.


The building fund is growing, but slowly. We have received promised grants, but still need quite a bit more to fund completion. We have do have enough money to make a start on the fitting out process, but it will only cover part of the job. The sooner we have the money the sooner we will be able to complete the building and start making use of it.

We have recently received a number of donations which are much appreciated. If one was from you, then we are deeply grateful. Thank you very much!
