Their vision follows the theme of a healthy & active living and includes a mixture of Community meeting / multi-purpose spaces to facilitate outreach & educational work for all age groups, a Community Café focusing on healthy eating, a soft play / crèche area, Artisan craft studio’s / retail units for local Artisan producers, state of the Art Golf simulators, A Community Gym and a Climbing wall.
This vision was arrived at, following extensive public consultation at open meetings in the town and from feedback from their 300+ members. A key recurrent theme was the lack of year-round facilities in the town and a wish for the building to be retained for community use, with a mix of facilities that should be open all year round.
Causeway Coast Community understands that their proposal would result in a reduced & fixed cost to the Council and a superb community focused facility that would be an activity centre for visitors to the Resort.
Yes great idea maybe schools could use communal education space
Some unique features like a climbing wall, a “fantasy island” style area and a good sized cafe would ensure good, bad weather / out of season attractions that the council could easily cope / profit with. Lazer quest could also be a good, relatively cheap idea.
