Improvement of Heathlands site 2020

We have some exciting and ambitious plans for the Heathlands site over the next few years.

Early in 2020 we hope to secure planning permission and start phase one of the site development. Phase one includes the refurbishment of a large learning area, demolition of dilapidated buildings and creation of a new carpark.

​The health, safety and wellbeing of everyone visiting the Heathlands site is of utmost importance and we will be working closely with our contractors to keep everyone safe while the development is underway.
