  • Express early interest in Sebastian Court

    supporting image

    In February and March 2021 we asked residents and organisations to express early interest in a new community space, asking people what activities they might like to see and what organisations might like to apply for the lease if it becomes available. After five weeks we reached out to speculative applicants to have a chat to find out more about them and their ideas, also to answer any questions regarding the lease ahead of the application window.



    We would like to know what you think the space could be used for. If you or someone you know might be interested in using or leasing this space to host community projects and activities. We cannot guarantee what will happen in the space in the future as it depends on who or what group applies for the lease, but this is a chance to express early interest! This is also not part of the formal lease application process however we’re keen to hear your thoughts.
