WE REALLY NEED YOUR HELP!!!
I will be at the Love Where You Live event on Hinkler Green between 12noon-4pm, this Saturday 15th June.
Before we apply for grant funding, we need to establish what services Thornhill residents would like to see in the building, that would improve your life?
We have several partners interested in running projects from the Hightown Centre should our funding application be successful, we would like you to tell us, what you want.
If you are a Thornhill resident and you can spare 5 minutes to answer some questions regarding the future of the Hightown Centre please come and find me, your opinions on the future really do matter to us.
I hope to see you on Saturday.
Thanks
Mike Allott

Come and hear about how to stay active in your community when living with a long term health condition

03/04/2024

For anyone interested in the future of the Hightown Community Centre (just outside Hightown school)
You may be aware that we were forced to close the Hightown Centre last December. Historically the centre was a hub for the community, and despite it not being used to full capacity for some time now, closing it has left the building with an unclear future and liable to be lost permanently to the community. We are very keen to make repairs to the building and get it re-opened, so that the community once again have a space to connect and hold activities.
We are in the process of writing a grant application which must be completed by the 10th April. As part of this we need to gauge what support we have, hence this email. We would like to invite you to a short, open public, online meeting this Thursday 4th April at 6:30pm where we will discuss the level of support that we have for this project. This may be that you would simply like to be kept updated on the process, or you may be interested in forming a group to help us in the bidding and/or renovation. All support is welcome and if you have other ideas about how you can support us, we’d love to hear them too.
