Construction of a new expanded community café and three workshop spaces - transforming a portion of Clitterhouse farm outbuildings back into productive use for the community and local enterprise.
Our Yard Ltd (trading as Clitterhouse Farm Project) is a not-for-profit company set up in early 2013 by a small group of local residents who all live within five minutes walk of the farm. The group successfully saved the historic buildings from demolition in 2014 and have a shared ambition to transform the site into a sustainable multi-use space for the community and local enterprise. They are a diverse group with a wide range of skills. They are all active in the community and committed to ensuring the long term future of the farm. Crucially their mission and all the work they do is supported by a large group of committed local volunteers.
The Project Owner takes legal responsibility for receiving and spending the funds raised and ensuring the project is delivered.
