Things are moving on many
fronts! We are embarked on securing planning permission on a
very suitable plot and we enjoy excellent professional support
from several individuals and organisations. We are fully
confident we will be granted planning approval for a building to
house a hydrotherapy pool, specialist gym and associated
facilities.
The building cost is estimated at £1.2million. We continue
negotiations to secure the major part of the finance from
interested parties. We have some funds to help pay our way,
thanks to West Berkshire Neurological Alliance and Englefield
Trust, but need more to maintain momentum.
We are a registered Company and are very grateful to Blandy &
Blandy, Solicitors, and to Social Enterprise Berkshire for their
help. Sixteen organisations originally signed an underpinning
interest in becoming members of our not-for-profit Social
Enterprise. We are most grateful for their ongoing commitment.
We are delighted that Gurmeet Sian has become our architectural
advisor and that John Tew and Shaun Leahy FCA have joined our
Board. We continue to seek volunteers in all shapes and sizes!
Our client user group is refining our design specification to
ensure that the detail within the facility will be suitable for
all users. We are confident about our business plan and the
Board is in robust shape to drive the project through to a
successful, working establishment. The Board is satisfied that
this important community health and well-being facility will be
a long-term success and that benefactors large and small will
wish to have their names associated with it. |
