London
Randalstown ARCHES Association was formed in 1995. It’s early work started with
a strategy, developed after consultation with the local community. Some basic
structures and services were put in place, starting with the community
newsletter, Arches Outlook. Notable events and achievements since then include:
The designation of Randalstown as a Conservation Area Illumination of the
Viaduct Bridging the Divide with the Viaduct bridge Launch of Townscape
Initiative Construction of ARCHES Mews Community Playground Development of the
gap site in the John Street car park at the end of ARCHES Lane Annual
organisation of the Christmas lights and ARCHES Festival We have worked along
with the local council to develop a Highway to Health Walking Route and worked
with Randalstown Pharmacies to develop a Community Pharmacy Project which is
ongoing. As well as projects, ARCHES has also aimed to improve people’s lives
through a range of training, education and community work provision. Over 4,000
people have gone through courses with ARCHES since 2001!
