Users' Forum

This is not our Community Centre, it is yours, too.  It’s very important that our local community have an opportunity for a clear say in everything we do.

Our annual Users’ Forum is an excellent opportunity to have your say, and let you know about everything we’ve done in that past year, as well as all of the services, events, classes and support available to you.

Members also get a chance to showcase how they use the space, with demonstrations and taster sessions available on the day. It is a brilliant chance not only to see what happens here but also to give feedback and have a chat with other local groups.

This event is usually held in the Summer.

AGM

Our AGM (Annual General Meeting) at St Werburghs Community Centre is usually hosted annually in December. 

 

Our most recent AGM took place on Thursday 27th January 2022 from 6 to 7 pm face-to-face and via Zoom. It covered the year between 1st April 2020 to 31st March 2021.
