The Campus for Future Living in Mablethorpe is East Lindsey District Council’s flagship project which will bring transformational health, wellbeing, research and community services to this area of the Lincolnshire coast for the first time, thanks to £8.6m government funding from the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government.
The campus consists of two, two-story buildings and open green space with easy access for the people of Mablethorpe. Beyond the physical structure, the vision is about creating opportunities, jobs, and support for the local community. Alongside a wealth of community-based services the campus will also offer a café facility for all to enjoy.
What will happen at the Campus?
The proposed plans for the Campus include a range of activities, networking space and room hire, with each initiative designed to make a tangible difference in the community.
Sited close to the Marisco Medical Centre, Mablethorpe Children’s Centre, Platform Housing and Mablethorpe Community Hub, the Campus is primely positioned to become a thriving centre that links services together, creates new services that support local need and offers opportunities for learning, research and wellbeing for generations to come.
This flagship and internationally significant project also benefits from the commitment of the University of Lincoln and the Lincoln Institute for Rural and Coastal Health to use the Campus as a base to conduct research and learning into health inequalities affecting the coastal communities.
This partnership further supports the original Mablethorpe Invest Plan which underpinned the bid for government funding to help turn health and medical challenges in this area into nationally significant strengths and opportunities to improve services and create jobs.
As part of this development, the existing CLIP centre, part of Acis Group, on Seacroft Road will relocate to the new Campus, giving the team further opportunities to provide education, skills and wellbeing services.
