No more pathways

At the end of January we were told by Peaks and Plains Housing Trust that they would be terminating our pathways clearing contract on the 31st of March this year due to financial pressures.
​We are hugely disappointed by this, especially because we think it is valuable work in and for the local community. For over 5 years we have employed local young people to do this work, young people who would not otherwise be employed. We have also supported these young people into training and education.
Losing this source of income is big blow to Cre8, because the income has helped us to fund the free activities which we give to young people in Macclesfield. We're busy looking for new contracts so that we can continue to provide employment for local young people.
A big thank you to Gary Beard and his team at PPHT who are doing their best to find us some work.

We will continue as much as we can to keep the pathways maintained in and around the Moss Rose estate on a voluntary basis.
