The finish line is now in sight!
The build project was so huge, we had to split it into 2 phases, but noth phases are now nearly complete
-Phase 1 of the build sees Frimley, 64 London Road undergo significant transformation to incorporate a new lift, training kitchen and visual arts suite as well as refurbished class rooms and sensory area. The new facilities will be accessible to everyone using our services as well as community groups using the space.
-Phase 2 is steaming ahead and will provide our organisation with the fully accessible performing arts space that we so desperately need. Inaccessible performance spaces will be a thing of the past!
Both phases of the project will be linked via the new lift, an accessible footbridge and sensory gardens.
Like any major build project, there have been hurdles to overcome and for various reasons the project has been delayed. We continue to work hard to raise every penny for the new build so that our services and organisation is secure for years to come.
We hope to relocate all of our services in the new year

“The Dance class make dances for the Active Arts show and we also made a dance for a project on the Pier – it was part of a film too.”
“It makes me very happy to come here. My work goes on show at exhibitions so people can see it, which also makes me happy. We get to make and try lots of different things.”
“I’ve learnt to act, I like taking part in the show and the classes are good fun.”
