Ardaluin Regeneration Trust
Over the past few years Ardaluin House and site has experienced a lack
of investment which was beginning to impact upon the structural integrity
and fabric of the House. If unaddressed the House could have suffered from
an irreversible level of dilapidation that could have seriously challenged
the future survival and sustainability for maintaining Ardaluin as a
residential centre.
Belfast Activity Centre (BAC) was identified and approached by the Ardaluin
Trust to explore the possibility of working collaboratively to assist with
the capital redevelopment of Ardaluin House and site and to consider how
existing and future groups and organisations could continue to use Ardaluin
to meet their residential and camping needs.
BAC had identified a corresponding need for a residential base and by
supporting Ardaluin could provide a sustainable future income source and
help to make better use of the available residential capacity at Ardaluin.
Both the Ardaluin Trust and BAC recognised that Ardaluin House and grounds
presented an exceptional opportunity to fuse a past heritage of working with
young people to a shared vision for creating a dynamic future legacy for
continuing generations of young people. Retaining and redeveloping Ardaluin
within the voluntary sector with the help and support of BAC, offered an
unprecedented opportunity to rescue, restore and regenerate Ardaluin as an
irreplaceable community based asset for future generations of young people.
Ardaluin Regeneration Trust is looking forward to working with BAC and
warmly welcome the help and support that BAC will offer during the months
and years ahead. I would ask and encourage all our existing groups and
organisations to give their continuing support to BAC as they take over the
day to day administration of Ardaluin House.
