Latest News: Work Starts on Planet Cheltenham EcoHub
We are pleased to update that on 4th March work started on the construction of the Planet Cheltenham EcoHub in St Pauls.
Initial work will involve demolition of the existing building before construction can start on the two storey EcoHub. Work is expected to take around 26 weeks and, subject to raising the required funds to complete the fitout of the building, we hope to be ready to open the EcoHub in late 2025.
On 5th March we welcomed members of the press and the local community to view the site. You can see the updates on their websites here:
We believe that the EcoHub will be an valuable facility for our local community as well as helping to provide education and information regarding how we can all help to address the impacts of climate.
Please visit our Donation Page for more information on how to donate or Contact Us if you would like to discuss any other ideas on how you can support the project or the wider work of Vision 21.
