Former St Christopher's School site set to open five-acre grounds to the community years after closure

The former St Christopher’s School in Westbury Park is to open its five-acre grounds and old school hall to the community for a year.

The move will see charities, community groups and arts organisations have free use of its indoor and outdoor spaces on a daily basis for the next 12 months. Luke Martin, senior project manager at Socius, which is redeveloping the school, said: “The site has been closed to the public and hidden behind a wall for many years. We have already started to open up the site and make it part of the wider community. We want to continue this.”
