Centre to stay on site
The Disabled Persons’ Centre in Worcester Street should be allowed to stay in its present site, the Canterbury Education Board agreed yesterday. The Education Department has said that it may want the building for "alternative educational use” from the beginning of 1990. The board leases the
site to the centre. The centre is used by more than 50 groups, and was purpose-built for disabled people, said the centre’s manager, Mr Graeme Stanley. The board agreed to write to the Minister of Education, and the direc-tor-general, supporting the retention of the site for use by disabled people.
