Our Big Project

A new Resource Centre for Andover Mencap

We have now signed the contract to begin the building of the new Resource Centre on the land on the Winchester Road where the pub called the Wellington Inn used to be.

Work has just started on demolishing the buildings on the site and the Wellington Pub is the first to go. (See pictures.)

Demolition work begins

The land will be used to build a new centre for Andover and District Mencap.  This will undoubtedly become Our Big Project for 2010.  Our new Resource Centre will:-

• be much closer to the Town Centre
• be a completely new building
• have facilities so that people can drop in
• be close to easy car parking

Here is one illustration of the plans for our new Resource Centre.
