Projects: Ron Davis Centre Expansion

This Scheme is complete!

The construction of two new classrooms at the Ron Davis Centre in Smethwick completed in August 2023. The construction of the expansion was completed by local company, E Manton Building Contractors, who are based in Birmingham.

The expansion of the Ron Davis Centre will increase capacity, provide a wider range of services and activities, often into the evenings and weekends, to help meet the needs of Smethwick families and the wider community. In creating a vibrant community hub through the provision of additional multipurpose space, closer working with partner organisations is realised, with a wider and more inclusive age range of users.
