The Current Site
Our Plans
We purchased the site in late 2018 with the view to developing the site to create a new multipurpose building for use of the charity and for functions. The main function of the building is to create a secure parking facility
for the cars which are driven by volunteers to provide cancer patients with a service to get them to and from appointments and treatments.
The proposals include for the demolition of the existing building which was used as a depot by ATS Euromaster until its purchase by the applicants.
The cars are to take pride of place within the garage at the front of the building with large fully glazed sectional doors providing access and a viewing platform from outside. Access to the function facilities is through the showroom area and leads to the function area to the rear with kitchen and toilet facilities for all. To the rear of the building we propose creating a small external courtyard with large glazed sliding doors providing access between the two.
The next step for our Cars!
