Low Down – New Site

The Lowdown is a Mental Health Charity, providing free and confidential support services for 11- 25 year-olds in Northamptonshire.

Situation

A long-term, project for one of our customers – The Low Down in Northampton, is building an extension to their Grade 2 Listed Building in the Town Centre, in order to provide them more office space, better counselling facilities and space to host other 3rd parties that are linked to their business needs.

Approach

Ashby has been a part of the project from day one and is in regular contact with the customer and building contractors, to facilitate the IT side of things, so that when the build goes live – the customer can move in with little issue.

During September 2024 – Stage 1 of the build was complete and some of the new office space became available for the staff to move into. Previously they had been renting offices in several places in Northampton temporarily, costing the charity a lot of money.

Getting the office staff moved back was a priority, and we facilitated this for them, but getting the parts of the network ready that we could, getting the internet supply (via Barton Telecomms) in place and providing the staff with wifi.

Impact and Advantage

The main office staff are now back in place, with some counselling space for their users to use. We are glad to have helped and continue to assist The Low Down with the next stages of the build.
