The Vassall Centre: Good News for the Future
After nine months of consultation and exploring various options, the Board of the Vassall Centre Trust has decided that it is time for the Vassall Centre to change ownership. A buyer has been found who has guaranteed that the current tenants will be able to stay at the Centre for at least 5 years. This means the Vassall Centre will not be closing down and none of the services or charities that currently operate from the Centre are under threat of closure.
New Service: Advice on Disability and Work
Following a merger with the Association of Disabled Professionals, the VCT is now able to provide advice on work-related issues to disabled people, employers and professionals in the field of disability and work. The service is currently funded by the Shaw Foundataion as a one-year pilot project. For information about this developing service please click here.
