Guided tours around Heartlands in Pool will give people living in the local community the opportunity to learn first hand, how the £29.5 million project is progressing.
The tours, which will take place on Friday October 2 at 2pm and Wednesday October 7 at 6pm, will guide people around the perimeters of the site. Kirsty Davies, Heartlands Community Project Manager will lead the tour and also be on hand to answer any questions people may have about the Project.
Heartlands is planned to transform Cornwall’s most derelict urban area into a truly inspirational cultural landscape. Heartlands became a reality in 2007 after receiving a £22.3 million grant from the Big Lottery Fund’s Living Landmarks programme, the only project in England to be awarded this funding. Additional funding has been provided by the Homes and Communities Agency, the national housing and regeneration agency for England and Cornwall Council. All funding for the project is secure and major works are planned to start early 2010.
Kirsty Davies, Heartlands Community Project Manager, said: “The Heartlands tours are a great way for members of the community to come on to the site and see for themselves the plans for the development of the site. We’ve run a number of tours already and the feedback is always that people really enjoy learning first hand how the Project is progressing and having the opportunity to ask any questions as they walk around.”
The tours will be limited to 10 people. Anyone interested in taking part in the site tour should contact Kirsty Davies, Heartlands Community Project Manager on 01209 722323.
