Nottingham charity snaps up property as former landlord expands

A charity has bought a three-floor premises in Clarence Street in Sneinton, Nottingham.

Nottingham Mencap has snapped up with the building in a deal brokered by FHP Property Consultants.

The building was previously used by the 3D Group UK for storage, manufacturing and distribution on the ground floor and offices/meeting rooms on the first and second floors.

Nottingham Mencap, the purchasers, are a self-funded Nottinghamshire charity which was founded in 1950 by a small group of parents who united to establish the right for their disabled children to live independent lives and have the same opportunities as everyone else.

Anthony Barrowcliffe of FHP said: “When I first met the 3D Group UK and they showed me around the property it blew me away in terms of internal fit-out, specification, quality and the high standard of finishings throughout. No expense was spared in what they thought was their forever home. Every inch of the building was utilised and bursting at the seams and reluctantly the 3D Group UK were having to relocate due to their incredible expansion and outgrowing this space.

“Nottingham Mencap is a wonderful charity and I was so pleased that terms could be agreed to allow the 3D Group UK to move into their much bigger new unit, and for Nottingham Mencap to move into Clarence Street which met their needs and support their expansion.

“This was a great transaction to be involved with, in an area I am very active in and believe is up and coming for industrial, office and residential property.”
