The former M&S building in Rochdale town centre will reopen as a new community hub on Tuesday (18 May).
Under its new name as the “Better Together Building”, its space is being offered for free use to charities or community groups through an organisation, ASTOP, which works to give vacant buildings a new purpose.
Better Together will be occupied by Mind Rochdale, Caring & Sharing, Reuse Littleborough, Global Educational Trust, Bridging Communities, Go Dharmic, Big Life Group, New Step for African Community (NESTAC), Showing Care, and De Butterfly community groups, with other charities set to join the project in the coming months.
