As the name suggests, community centres were originally established as a central hub for local communities to gather and connect, and this function is more important than ever in the digital era. In recent years, several thousand community centres and youth centres have been forced to close their doors, giving rise to calls for more to be done to protect them.
Run by the Stanwix Community Association, a registered charity, Stanwix Community Centre has undergone several modernisation programs to align it with emerging needs. It now boasts fast fibre broadband, a smartboard, and a projector and screen, so you can carry out any meetings, courses, or talks with ease.
“Although we offer this facility primarily to the residents, families, and businesses of Stanwix, we welcome enquiries and bookings from individuals, groups, and businesses from the whole of the Carlisle area,” an association representative explained. “Our up-to-date facility is the result of many years of hard work, so we encourage anyone with a requirement to take a look and consider supporting our work.”
The main room in Stanwix Community Centre is 7 metres by 9 metres, and tables and chairs are available for groups of between 20 and 30 people. A modernised kitchen also allows you to prepare food and drinks for both social gatherings and business meetings.
Stanwix Community Centre can support almost any requirement, dependent on the size of your group. Some of the events that have already been held include first aid courses, adult education, and a display of rare Roman artefacts from a nearby archaeological dig.
“We now offer a convenient online booking capability, complete with availability calendar, for any one-off or ad-hoc requirements,” the association continued. “When you compare our community centre with similar facilities in Carlisle, you’ll see that our rates are extremely competitive.”
