NEWS IN BRIEF
WE’VE MOVED!SAME TRUST. DIFFERENT LOCATION We’ve moved to: THE GRANVILLE, CARLTON VALE, LONDON NW6 5HENOVEMBER 2017: SOUTH KILBURN TRUST MOVES INWe are excited to announce we have moved! We spent more than 3 years at Carlton Hall and while it served us well, we outgrew the space some time ago. Our move into The Granville will allow the team to develop and be at the centre of the community. It means that while the Granville is being refurbished we can be more hands-on to develop a space that will truly service the community. We are now based in the smaller top floors of The Granville, so please feel free to come and see us via the Barnardo’s Children’s Centre entrance on Carlton Vale and we’ll show you around and and talk you through the plans for the building.
NOVEMBER - MARCH 2018: LOWER TWO FLOORS REFURBISHEDThe biggest part of the refurbishment is the two main floors. Work has started to create a new open-plan café (with free wi-fi), open daily as a space to meet, socialise and also rent for evening and weekend events. In addition, there will be two other rooms for the community to hire for events and activities. We will create a new professional space for local organisations and businesses and open up the garden with a new shed and a new entrance. The work will be completed by March, ready for a spring opening. Keep up-to-date on the progress and visit the brand new website: www.thegranville.org
WHAT WILL BE IN THE GRANVILLE?
3 large flexible spaces for you to rent for your projects, activities, meetings and events
New open, public space to meet and to socialise
Increased access to the garden
A café
Workspaces to run your enterprise, organisation or business from
