"The Group was founded in 1936 at Chilwell Road Methodist Church and moved in the 1950s to a building close to the current site. The group purchased the plot on which this building stood and replaced it with a larger building in 1975.

By the end of the century, this second building was clearly in need of replacement, at which point providence took a hand. The developer, Braemore, wished to develop the whole of Styring Street including the plot on which the old HQ stood. The group was able to trade the plot for an adjacent one and the purpose-built HQ that is the Group’s current home."
