ONE STEP NEARER TO A COMMUNITY SPORTS HUB IN NORTH HALIFAX
OSCA Foundation has submitted its business plan - The Pavilion - Building on Success.
The application for the transfer of the community asset setting out proposals to convert the former Forest Cottage Community Centre to form the Pavilion for the OSCA community sports hub Has been approved by Calderdale Council. This is a massive step towards a first-class sports facility in North Halifax.
Since the Foundation accepted community management in 2012 it has achieved its first half £million investment to improve the outdoor facilities with pitch improvement and the addition of a floodlit 3G multi-use games area and informal kick about area .
