For the last eight weeks, Great Sankey Parish Council has been working on the major refurbishment of Tim Parry Community Centre.

Today we popped down to the Centre to get a sneak peek of some of the work that has already been completed.

Peter Watson, Chairman of Great Sankey Parish Council said “It has been a lot of work and we are very impressed by the changes so far. We hope that those who use the facility will be impressed by the wow factor”.

The main hall will be completed by the last week in September and Cromdale Way Pre-school, who are one of the groups which operate from the Centre are very excited about using the new facilities.

“The Centre was out dated and very gloomy before, we’re looking forward to using the bright modern facilities and it will be a delight to see the children’s reaction to the new look” said Dawn Mullin, Manager of Cromdale Way Pre-school.

Work will now begin on transforming the annexe room and building the new front extension.

Once the refurbishment is complete, hopefully by the end of October it will look like a brand-new Centre.
