Comelit-PAC Scores for Accrington Stanley Community Trust Sports Hub
Accrington Stanley Football Club Community Trust’s new £2m sports hub, is now fire-safe thanks to the installation of Comelit-PAC’s LogiFire addressable system by GB Integrated Systems.
The completion of the state-of-the-art sports and community complex, associated with the world-renowned Accrington Stanley Football Club, promises to improve facilities for up to 20,000 users every year.
The hub stands as a multi-purpose site that provides indoor and outdoor facilities for many grassroots clubs, sports groups and local organisations. It is also home to the trust’s charity and a place of learning for around fifty 16,17 and 18-year-olds studying for a career in sport.
Says Accrington Stanley’s Community Trust Chief Executive Office, Martin Fearon: “The vision always for the Trust’s new Sports Hub was to demonstrate our commitment and investment not only in grassroots sports but also to creating an inclusive environment. We wanted to offer a great mix of facilities for all sectors of the general public to enjoy. The result is a massive step forward, one that is accessible to everyone and we hope a facility for our community as a whole to be proud of for many years and generations to come.”
The main building houses the trust and charity’s 12 full-time and 12 part-time staff along with the 50 BTEC students, many of whom will also volunteer at the hub.
