Opening your local community centre – how we are adapting as we move towards ‘Freedom Day’

With the much anticipated ‘Freedom Day’ is getting ever closer, we thought it would be helpful to set out how we are getting your local community centre usage back to full capacity.

Depending on government guidelines, we will be opening up bookings for private events, conferences, and other restricted activities from 19 July. Please bare with us, however, while we navigate these tricky times with ever changing guidance and our responsibility of keeping all user groups and our staff safe. Ultimately, as a charity we want to get back to full capacity as soon as possible, but put the safety of our staff and centre users must come first.

Currently, the groups running from our community centres again include those for Under 18s, vulnerable people, and of course our resident pre-schools. Some exercise classes for adults have also returned, all in a Covid Safe format, and we are pleased to say that some churches are now also returning, subject to centre capacity and risk assessments.

If you have not yet returned to our centres but would like to discuss a plan for doing so, please get in touch with our team. We can’t wait to see you again.
