Play, Parkland and Prosperity

Often our charity clients are looking to secure their futures by investing the present. The, fantastically awesome Little Hulton Big Local (LHBL) were one of 150 Big Local trusts who were allocated £1m each to spend on improving the lives of their local residents. For the past 5 years Little Hulton Big Local have been investing in young lives, focusing on young adults who are Not in Education, Employment or Training (NEET) and children from deprived backgrounds. As they near the end of their 5 year business plan they are looking to the future to ensure that their vital work continues.

Peel Park is a somewhat underappreciated community asset that LHBL are looking to invest in by combining their requirements for offices, meeting rooms and community space with a park café and BMX pump track! This fantastic project touches on all the most important parts of architecture, great clients already doing fantastic work, regenerating unloved community space and mixed use accommodation that will contribute to the continuing improvement of the Little Hulton community.

Update June 2021: Planning permission achieved! We're so thrilled to have (finally) made it through the severely Covid delayed planning process and have approval. Despite the delays we're really grateful to Salford Planning Authority for working with us to enable Community Little Hulton to have a permanent presence in Peel Park and continue their important work. Updates will now be coming more regularly as we progress this exciting building towards construction which we hope will be in 2022. Watch this space!
