No idea hoe a new venture could be responsible for somebody else debts. Sounds very dodgy.
I hope it doesn't get knocked down like all the facilities at Seaton Carew did.
We might not have teem hooligans causing havoc, breaking windows etc. if they still had somewhere to go.
So, if the council were 'paying the rent, gas and electric', they were in effect getting the propert for nothing with unlimited utilities?
Do all community centres get this deal as well, or just certain ones?

Maybe the charity that is not a charity is getting favourable terms!!
Has it been officially confirmed that HBC was paying the utility bills?
If that is the case, I'm curious as to what other community centers are being 'subsidised' similarly....

If the Rifty was getting the rent & utilities paid by the Council Tax payers of Hartlepool, we were obviously too tight to pay the insurance
