GRANGE PAVILION 

We intend to redevelop Grange Pavilion into a multifunctional accessible facility supporting Grangetown's diverse communities, providing multiple rooms for community use and for hire, a community-focused cafe, public amenities, and a community-led garden for wellbeing, play, sports, learning, growing and biodiversity, all of which are priorities identified by Grangetown communities.
