How to get in touch with our team
The House is a pioneering, aspirational initiative to transform youth provision in St Austell. The town is the largest conurbation in Cornwall, but until Groundwork began working there in 2007 through the Youth Works programme, there had been no youth work provision and no youth centre for over 15 years.
Through a strong partnership with Restormel Borough Council (now Cornwall Council), a disused building was secured to become St Austell’s first dedicated Youth Centre in 15 years. The building has been totally refurbished and comprises a social meeting space, top of the range kitchen area, internet suite, one to one room and office space.
