Building Work At Willow Tree Centre
Building work has begun on the new facilities at the Willow Tree Centre. The foundations have been laid for the new maintenance block and the new training building is really beginning to take shape. At this stage we have raised enough money to construct the training building but not to fully equip it or to construct the maintenance block
For more information on the development, pictures of the construction and information on how to help us complete the work, please read this important news item.
