The Harmony Project (360G-landaid-20181905)

£75,000

The Harmony Project provides safe accommodation for young women aged 16-24 and their children who have been forced to flee their homes to escape domestic abuse. The project is located just outside Greater Manchester. We have operated a refuge in the property since 1983 and reopened as the Harmony Project since 2013. The building is a Victorian terraced property and is leased on a 200-year lease from High Peak Borough Council, at a peppercorn rent of £1 per year. The property needs modernising to make it more welcoming to young women. It also needs a full rewire, changes to the layout and a full redecoration. We will also include more energy saving features and a more economical heating system, to reduce our ongoing costs. The new kitchen will incorporate a central island which will encourage shared cooking to help improve budgeting and healthy eating.
