Facilities
Queens
Park Community Centre opened in September 1994. It is a joint
Borough Council/Church project and is next to All Saints
Church.
Queens Park Community Centre provides an outstanding facility. All
Saints Church Hall retains the original character of this building
whilst offering the facilities of a modern community centre. The
large main hall has a stage. One meeting room which can be used
with the hall or separately and the well-equipped bar and kitchen,
with cooker and crockery, make the centre suitable for any type of
function.
Activities
The
centre hosts singing and dancing classes. It provides a perfect
venue for all sorts of social functions such as wedding
receptions, conferences and parties including children's
parties (The main hall is high enough to accommodate a bouncy
castle).
The Coffee Pot
every Tuesday morning is a community Based Coffee Morning from
10am to 12pm.
Local people are invited to come along and
enjoy a relaxed informal time together along with Tea, coffee,
Cakes & Fruit. Everything is free. Children are
welcome. Toys are provided for the children and there are
competitions and prizes every week. Good Fun! Good Food! Good
Friends!
