The Future
Events
The Centre at Benson Oxfordshire is fully open. Throughout our extension project we will remain open and cater for the same number of customers. At times space will be limited, but we will still have a delicious lunch and activities.
Expansion - Our Extension and Refurbishment project
With a growing elderly population, and our aim to help people maintain their independence as long as possible, we see a real need to expand our Centre. We have already spent much time planning an expanded and refurbished building with a lounge extension. We have outline planning permission and approval from our landlord SOHA.
We appointed local architects Matthew T Young to finalise our detail design and prepare tender documents. Following a successful tender process we selected Roy Passey Builders from Benson for the contract. Work started as planned on Monday 1st August and the footings for the extension are already complete. Work continues on schedule and the oversite concrete was poured on Monday 8th August.
