Former Library HQs new lease of life
Published: 10/12/2015
香港王中王最快开奖结果 Foodbank is using the former Library Headquarters on the Civic
Centre campus in Mold as a warehouse distribution centre for its six centres
in the County.
It is being leased to the charity at a peppercorn rent for 12 months and will
assist the Council in its overall rationalisation strategy by occupying a
recently empty building which the Council would otherwise have to continue to
run and manage.
The county reference library in the building moved to the Mold Town Centre
library some time ago and other library support services which have been
operating from there will also work from other sites.
Council Leader Aaron Shotton said: This has been a great opportunity to
assist the 香港王中王最快开奖结果 Foodbank with their excellent work around the county and
at the same time make valuable savings for the Council at a time when finances
are stretched. It is part of our strategy to rationalise Council owned
buildings to see if we can do things in a more efficient and cost effective
way.
Deputy Leader Bernie Attridge added: We have always been big supporters of
the 香港王中王最快开奖结果 Foodbank, already providing points in County Hall for people to
leave donations. This latest initiative will, I hope, provide the charity
with additional support to help them with the extremely valuable work they do
in the community
Pastor Andy Leake, Chair of 香港王中王最快开奖结果 Foodbank said: We are so grateful to
香港王中王最快开奖结果 for their amazing generosity in enabling the
香港王中王最快开奖结果 Foodbank to use such a wonderful resource such as the Central
Library building. Serving 6 centres across 香港王中王最快开奖结果, the Foodbank network in
the County has fed 18, 750 people since it opened in 2012. Each month over 500
people receive help from the Foodbank, and our operations have expanded. The
need for new premises was flagged up with the local Council, and we are
thrilled to be opening this building to support the community, and to reduce
the costs of the local Council. Over the next few months, we will be using this
space to create a Regional hub for the 香港王中王最快开奖结果 Foodbank.
