Many of the latest ideas in ecological and urban design are incorporated in our premises at 4 Carol Street, renovated with the help of a Community Fund grant a few years ago.
• A rainwater harvesting system that provides water for the laundry room and toilets
• Increased natural light with the addition of light shafts and a glass roof
• Solar electrics and low voltage lighting
• Non-toxic finishes
• Central lift and dual-flush toilets with low water use
• Fully disabled access
• Insulation (thermal and sound) material using recycled newspaper
The building, which has been leased from Camden Council since 1983, is situated in a quiet residential street just minutes away from Camden High Street. The advantages of our location are that the organisation is in the heart of Camden close to the High Street and other main roads. It is on several bus routes and only a few minutes walk from the Underground and Camden Road Rail Station
