Sure Options

Sure Options also operates Jubilee Sports Bank and Jubilee Park.

Jubilee Sports Bank

Parks Options took over the ownership of Kensington Sports Centre on 01/04/2010, the management and running of the sports centre is through Sure Options.
The sports centre is now called Jubilee Sports Bank and it provides a wide variety of sports based activities and classes in the centre including a fully fitted equipped gym and large sports hall.  In addition to the indoor activities we provide outdoor football pitches, astro pitches, trim trail and cycle path.

Jubilee Park

Parks Options has created an urban park on a brown field site on the area of Kensington Reservoir.  This has provided a green lung for the local community.  Two new entrances to the park have been established one in Jubilee Drive and one in Brae Street.  The park has a children’s playground, raised wild flower beds, paths and a forest school.  Much more will be added to the park over time.

 

Parks Options

The Parks Options story starts in 1997, when Objective 1 funded Parks Partnership decided to adopt Job Bank as its flagship legacy project.

Parks Options was formed in August 1999 to be the legal owner of Job Bank. Parks Options is a not for profit limited company with charitable status.

As well as employing all Parks Options staff, we are also responsible for the employment of all of the staff of Sure Options.

Sure Options is a not for profit social enterprise and a subsidiary of Parks Options in that the Directors of Sure Options are appointed by the Trustees of Parks Options.

Our aim is to serve the local community; providing jobs and training, and stimulating the growth of social enterprises.

We operate Job Bank, Yew Tree Children’s Centre and Nursery, Jubilee Sports Bank and Jubilee Park, and Life Bank, this includes Kensington Children’s Centre and Nursery.

We are commissioned by Liverpool City Council to deliver Kensington and Yew Tree Children’s Centres. We have achieved this by working in partnership with Liverpool City Council, Liverpool Hope University, Liverpool Primary Care Trust and the Local Community.
