Episode Details

Once slated for demolition into a parking lot, Todmorden College is now a thriving community hub—five years after locals reclaimed it. Offering everything from basketball to math classes, plus banking and repair workshops, it’s become a cornerstone of daily life. With green skills training in renewable energy and sustainable building, the center is future-proofing jobs while honoring its past. Recent upgrades funded by the Town Deal transformed the space into a welcoming, efficient hub. A powerful testament to community power: when people take ownership, even forgotten buildings can become vibrant, lasting centers for generations.
