Gorki Building Programme Completed

Submitted on August 6th, 2009 by Administrator

A Wondeful new playground & state of the art kitchen were fitted in the Gorki Centre  in  July.         The  playground  was hand made to extremely high standards by very generous people at Wheatfield prison. The  renovation work  is  now complete at Gorki, but CCT has made a long-term commitment & will continue to support this vitally important chil- dren’s support centre.  

The Kitchen at the Children’s Centre at Gorki was the main focus of our building team.  Before July, staff there, had to cook with ancient cooking equip- ment in a smelly building that was electrically unsafe in a really unhygienic, unsafe environment and which also had a leaking roof! The team completely renovated, re-wired and re-equipped the kitchen and laundry areas to best European standards!

In addition to a wonderful new kitchen & laundry, the team also installed a fantastic new state-of-the-art playground in the grounds of the centre.  This magical play- ground was loving hand crafted by the people at Wheatfield prison and has already made a huge difference in the lives of the Children at the centre who all come from traumatised family situations. 

This was phase 3 of the works undertaken over the past 3 years. I  2007 and 2008 the rest of the 26 room building had been renovated to a high standard, making it into  acomfortable place for both children and their carers.
