The Community Centre Services & Facilities
The new community centre is located near Wakefield city centre and is at the heart of Alverthorpe, Darnley, Peacock and Plumpton areas, making it the perfect hub for the local residents. These are much needed inner city facilities that will be used to tackle many problems (an increase in anti-social and criminal behaviour) in addition to offering the following services:
Health & Wellbeing
Exercise areas to help counter health problems within a safe environment and specialised equipment for sports, games and rehabilitation use.
Education & Development
After school clubs and tuition classes (regulated by Ofsted). Religious education and Prayer hall. Weekend youth clubs and children’s summer holiday camps.
Social & Welfare
A cafe/ lounge for the use of meetup groups to help the vulnerable, single mothers, the elderly, astray teenagers etc. Fundraising and other charity work will be taking place in conjunction with all the other activities as this is the backbone of the centre.
Amenities & Services
The centre has multi-purpose spaces that can be booked for weddings, funerals, family and local community events. The main feature is the large community hall, with a stage and a commercial kitchen accessed from a dedicated serving area. Other large rooms are available for hire as well, giving more choice. There is ample car parking for all the different users of the centre..
