Description

Blackburn with Darwen Borough Council believes that community asset transfer is fundamentally about giving local people and community groups greater control in the future of their area and their community.

If local groups own or manage community buildings and facilities it can help foster a sense of belonging and bring together people from different backgrounds. Community ownership of buildings can also play a part in raising local aspirations, in enhancing the local environment and in alleviating poverty.

The Council is seeking a local organisation that can manage and develop the facility known as Green Lane MUGA (Multi Use Games Area) located in the West neighbourhood area of Blackburn.
