Community hub to be created at Kingshurst school

PLANS have been approved to turn a school office next to Yorkswood Primary into a community hub.
It is intended that the building in Kingshurst Way offers services such as “knit and natter” sessions and healthcare meetings for new mums.
The application was approved by Solihull Council’s planning committee earlier this month.
One objection was received in response to the proposal, with a resident citing concerns about noise nuisance.
But borough councillors were satisfied by the planning officer’s report, which concluded that the alterations to the premises were very minor.
It is intended the hub will operate Mondays to Fridays, between 8am and 7pm.
