Adapt our existing building to provide an accessible space for those using wheelchairs or limited mobility. This will include creating an accessible bathroom and therapy room.
We have called our centre in Chorley home for forty years. We love our building but recognise that it does not fully meet the needs of our community. We have a great location in the town centre, close to public transport links and amenities. This project will make our centre accessible while retaining its homely feel. We are going to add an accessible entrance, accessible bathroom, accessible therapy room and access to our garden space. It will also create an additional upstairs therapy room to increase capacity. We already provide mental health support, trauma informed therapy, workshops and groups but making our building accessible will mean we can offer these vital services to more people. This project will make our centre more inclusive, more welcoming and help us meet the needs of our community. It will also allow us to offer our space to other small community groups, therapists, coaches and practitioners thereby creating a much needed revenue stream for our charity.
What we'll deliver:
Why it's a great idea:
Increase volunteering opportunities and open volunteering to those with access needs Increase access to training and education Increase access to mental health support Expand our reach to help more people in our community Boost our offering to the community by providing a space for other organisations to use Enable us to offer far more to disabled women, those with mobility needs and the elderly Help us reach our accessibility goals Additional employment for therapists and counsellors due to increased capacity in the building.
