Improvements to be made in 2012

Fri, 20 Jan 2012 15:48:00 +0000

You may recall that in the last ClubTalk the Chairman mentioned that we are hoping to refurbish the Memorial Wing accommodation we would like to inform you that this project is now underway. Floors 2, 3 and 4 will be done in this phase with other floors being tackled the year after, funds permitting. Phase 1 is to be completed by 9th April 2012.

The refurbishment to the bedrooms will include air conditioning, secondary windows (to help with noise reduction), new bathrooms, telephones, furnishings and furniture. We hope to keep prices much as they are now but there may be some small increases and adjustments to prices where necessary.

Should you need to sleep during the day during this project, we advise that you to ask for a room in the Centenary Wing to avoid being disturbed and…

“Our children would get stressed and anxious and we decided to take their mind off things with a trek up Snowdonia to raise cash for back in March. It was so successful we decided to set up a charity for other children affected in the same way. The aim of the charity is to support young children and their families by giving them a focus. We wanted to create a second family where children missing their mums and dads could talk to others in the same situation. Our ultimate goal is to open a residential adventure centre…
