1st Richmond’s premises have been revamped with the installation of modern heating, disabled access and facilities, transforming it into a much more user friendly and useful asset to the people of Richmond. In January 2006 the refurbished building was re-opened by Rt Hon William Hague MP, Shadow Foreign Secretary and MP for Richmond. Many local people and charities contributed to the costs of the building’s refurbishment.
