I could not stand by and see a facility be demolished because I knew it would have a detrimental effect on the long term health and well being of the community. It soon became apparent that the decision would not be reversed and the last option was a community buy out of the facility. Fighting demolition is massive, but thanks to a great team within the community that evolved we have done it - it is the community worker's dream. I am so proud do be a part of this.
