People in Clifton are saddened to hear about the permanent closure of a children’s centre which is now set to be sold. The Clifton Children’s Centre at Greencroft in Clifton has been closed for over 6 months.
A decision has now been made to declare the building surplus to operational requirements and for the future of the site to be determined by the Director of Economic Development at the council. The annual running costs for the site are approximately £55,000, including an £8,000 business rates charge.
The centre has provided early help services to the local community in addition to day care services through a charity, Greenfields Ltd. The early help service was gradually relocated to Clifton Young People’s Centre on Green Lane, where delivery has taken place for around three years.
