| Our Goal Is to help ourselves provide for our own future health and social wellbeing needs by purchasing a disused Victorian Infant School, and together with partners, transform it into an Anchor Organisation called Abergavenny Community Centre Ltd The added-benefits that spring from a vision to bring people and places together encourages a sense of belonging and a true sense of wellbeing in children, families and older people living in and around the historic market town of Abergavenny in South Wales. The former PARK STREET INFANTS SCHOOL is the catalyst - an anchoring point - from where community regeneration and planned renewal can take hold. - We want to hold a public asset in trust not only to meet present needs but to enable future generations to meet theirs too. - Ownership of an asset allows us to set local priorities and it will free us from bureacracy. -We will operate a not-for-profit business model that recycles profit for local good-use. - Community-ownership creates a brand new platform for local enterprise and investment connected with regeneration. We made a short film to help us tell our developing story. To watch 'Voices of Abergavenny' (23 mins) Click Here Made in 2008 with help from MONTV |
