Description

The existing collection of buildings at All Saints Church is made up of piecemeal agglomeration of structures that have undergone a prolonged period of adaptation and 'making do'. The current facilities are now at maximum capacity, and are no longer fit for purpose with a myriad of demands being put on the existing dated and sub-standard infrastructure. The church has therefore taken a huge step and embarked on a mission to completely remodel and improve the facilities it offers to the community, to serve the community. The mission of the church is also bolstered by the fact the population of the parish is set to increase significantly by 2030. This dramatic population increase within the parish and surrounding area so requires a greater variety of multi-use spaces if this established community support facility is able to cope with the increased demand on its services. The existing structures generally perform very poorly thermally, acoustically and spatially and are proving to be increasingly difficult to manage as the pull on the community support offered by the church increases year on year. The main Church structure dates from the 1980's and it is proposed to retain this structure whilst revisiting the rest of the site and ancillary accommodation to provide a purpose-built facility aligned with All Saints' contemporary and future needs.

The proposed scheme seeks to provide an enhanced and upgraded place of worship and community hub on the site based on the retention of the main church space and the creation of a purpose built dedicated community meeting spaces, offices and storage facilities that better support the wide range of groups and people who use the facilities, both now and in the future.
