Scope Construction’s Maz Patel, Glenn Slater, and Dominic Richard Jeffrey attended the Mosaic 1898 Whetstone Hub - Have Your Say event at the new Whetstone Baptist Church situated within the Springwell building in Whetstone – a stunning new building

Scope Construction is currently onsite working with Mosaic 1898 and SKM Design (SKM Architects Ltd) to deliver the new Whetstone Hub on the site of the old Whetstone Baptist Church

The scheme is 3 projects in 1;

The Manse: Refurbishing an existing house to provide much-needed respite/support for Leicestershire families and caregivers

The Community Centre: Is being brought back to life with accessible and disability-friendly spaces including a sensory room and therapy room to provide life-enhancing care

The Chapel: Is being restored into a multi-use space for the whole community

The multi-phased project will be completed later in the year with the Manse (Respite Centre) on track for completion in September

Apt that the event was held in Whetstone Baptist Church’s new home with the large cross, centre stage, being a nod to its old location - made from wood reclaimed from the old pews at the former site

The event was organised and hosted by Zoheb Shariff and Krupa Bhatt. Whilst the focus of the Whetstone project is to provide a hub for Mosaic 1898’s services to support disabled families they also have a clear vision for the hub to meet the needs of the wider Whetstone community, so this event was all about engaging with and listening to the local community, capturing their ideas and feedback on how to best meet their specific needs

It was great to be invited to this event and fantastic to see attendees so engaged, with plenty of questions and feedback being given on how the Whetstone Hub can best serve the local community
