(31/07/2021) We are thrilled to have made a conditional offer on the former Rosebank Estate events venue. The site provides us with more space than we had expected (and a number of aged buildings and services). We anticipate needing to construct new buildings to meet our needs but are open to the potential re-use of existing structures.
Our next task is to check out the issues that we need more certainty of to allow the board confidence to confirm an unconditional offer within 6 weeks. During this next period, known as “due diligence” we have arranged a day (22nd August) for those wishing to check out the property and for us to update progress and answer any questions. We look forward to seeing you there if you are able.
We also need to reach out to the congregation at this time, and with a deadline of confirmation looming, to help fund this once-in-a-lifetime project. We have been enormously blessed by support from several early and substantial donations and pledges, such that the funding needed from each of us now to secure the site can be matched at least 2-fold by those donations, to allow much of the construction work to proceed forthwith. Where else can your dollar buy at least 3 times its value! Please visit the fundraising page for more information on the campaign to purchase Rosebank.
