Welcome to the Barrowcliff 'Our Bigger Story' website. This is part of the multi media evaluation of 15 Big Local areas in England. The website is an opportunity to follow what is changing in Barrowcliff as a result of Big Local over a ten year period.
The aim of the website is to share the learning from everything that is happening in Barrowcliff with other Big Local areas and highlight what works in communities with a wider audience of practitioners and policy makers.
We would like to thank Big Local for supporting us in making improvements to our building: the new LED lights have brought down the cost of utility bills massively and the new kitchen extension allows us to offer cooking on a budget classes for young people and adults, as well as being able to offer a free cafe. With support from Big Local we have seen an increase in the amount of people using our building, for example when we run the community bingo which has been hugely successful and something we aim to continue.
