Longbarn Community Hub - Operator

Description

The Longford Park Project aims to restore and enhance the park’s historic features and create a vibrant community asset. A key component is transforming the Longbarn from a storage facility into a community hub offering volunteering, training, and skills development opportunities. Opportunity Trafford Council seeks an experienced operator to manage the Longbarn Community Hub in Longford Park. The Longbarn is a heritage building in Longford Park, currently undergoing restoration, that will offer flexible spaces for volunteering, learning, arts & culture, health & wellbeing and community participation. The successful organisation will be responsible for ensuring that its operation meets the terms of the lease and agreed KPIs, reporting to Trafford Council and hiring the space out to other organisations. The building will also act as a hub for information and enhancement of the park’s visitor experience. The development of the Longbarn will reuse the existing building fabric sustainably with scope for a more sensitive and sustainable retrofit.
