Gedling Station Regeneration

Gedling Youth & Community Hub is a charity whose aim is to convert the former railway station building in Gedling village into a youth centre and community hub.

The Plan

We hope to fully restore the old station building on Shearing Hill to its former glory and also renovate the grounds, adding much needed community space for a multitude of uses by various age groups and activities.

We have obtained funding from the National Lottery Heritage Fund and Nottinghamshire County Council’s Community Infrastructure Levy to help fund this new venture.

The Chairman of the Gedling Youth Club Management Committee, Francis Rodrigues, said, “There was huge public support to save the former youth club and station from residential development and the three local groups coming together reflect that support.”

PLANS

The Gedling Youth Club Management Committee, Gedling Village Preservation Society and Friends of Gedling Station this week revealed new plans to renovate Gedling Station, which have been brought to life by Nottingham-based architect Simon Middlecote.

USES

The station will become a hub for the local community, adding a much needed space for people to get together for a wide range of activities. The surrounding area will also be renovated to include a new greenway connecting to local footpaths and cycling paths.

SUPPORT US

We are seeking backing from the National Lottery Heritage Fund and Nottinghamshire County Council’s Local Improvement Scheme to help fund the venture. We also hope people in the local area will back the plans by donating to our crowdfunding scheme.
