A COMMUNITY centre in York has been given a fresh new look.

Walmgate’s Space 109 has been spruced up thanks to a team of volunteers including staff from HBOS.

Space 109 administrator Claire Kenward said: “We were approached by the bank, who volunteered to pay for the revamp. The paintwork needed freshening up outside, to ensure it looked professional and in keeping with the direction for Space 109.

“We also focused on painting the kitchen, as we have a lot of cooking clubs for children, ex-offenders and young mothers.”
