Purchase of Blashford Community Respite Facility

Description

The London Borough of Camden intends to purchase an existing portacabin building currently installed and in use as the Blashford Community Respite Facility. The facility comprises a large modular cabin with associated decking, ramped access, toilets (including accessible facilities), kitchen, meeting rooms, furnishings, utilities, and associated external amenity space. The facility has been in continuous use since 2023 as part of the Chalcots Major Works Programme and provides a valued community space supporting residents, children, and local charities. The proposed purchase will retain the facility for medium- to long-term community use (5-15 years), avoiding dismantling, waste, and loss of community benefit.
