COMMUNITY HUB UPDATE NOVEMBER 24
We’re pleased to bring you the latest news on the progress of our much-anticipated Community Hub. Things are really starting to take shape, and we’re keen to share all the exciting developments.
We’re not just building a hub – we’re building a sustainable one. The installation of new solar panels is progressing smoothly. Panels have been mounted on the roof and will be connected to a battery system.
The solar panels will significantly reduce the hub’s energy reliance on traditional power sources. They could provide a substantial portion, or even all, of the hub’s electricity needs, contributing to sustainability and lowering long-term operating costs.
What will be happening at the Hub?
It has been some time now since we featured details of what will be in the completed building and for some newer residents, this may be the first time you have read about our project. The new Community Hub will offer:
Community Hub Café is a welcoming and inclusive space to enjoy affordable drinks, snacks and meals. The Café operator will also be offering initiatives, in partnership with CPCC, that will serve the needs of the local community and the wider community of MK.
Community Larder is a dedicated space that will offer food available to anyone who needs it, at a very low cost. The idea is to reduce food waste by redistributing surplus or donated food from supermarkets, restaurants, local farms, or individuals, with the emphasis on sharing resources in a sustainable and supportive way.
Multi Use Space is available to the community free of charge for a range of activities. This could be training sessions, a meeting space for small community organisations or a place for a group to meet.
CPCC Council Chamber is where residents are welcome to attend meetings of the council and its committees and get involved in shaping the community.
Our reception area will be on the ground floor and the CPCC offices on the first floor.
Look out for regular updates on our website and all the socials as the building continues to take shape.
If you have any questions or concerns about the building works, please contact the CPCC office on 01908 608559 or email admin@campbell-park.gov.uk
