The Heart of Egremont. The name says it all!
Our community centre in the heart of Egremont opened its doors to residents in July 2013 and has been transformed from a former café. As the Now we have moved to larger premises due to the success of the centre. into a place where people can drop in any time for a cuppa and a chat, share stories old and new, find out what's going on in their area, pass on messages, meet new friends, and take part in some classes if they fancy.
There are coffee clubs, kids craft classes, Tai Chi style exercises, mixed martial arts, Dementia café, job clubs, support groups, chair exercises, lunch club and computer lessons. All the people involved in running the classes are volunteers giving their time regularly, for the benefit of the whole community. New classes and activities will be added to the menu in time after consulting with the local community as to what they would like to see in the centre. To offer more we do need help to put on other activities. So if you have some spare time, would like to share your skills or even just chat to visitors to the centre, please get in touch and let’s really get moving!!
The first Egremont Festival 2013 was funded by The Big Lottery, without which the festival may not have happened. The same is true of The Heart of Egremont. We have been funded by John Moore's University in the past and through our own fundraising. We receive no other funding, subsidies or assistance. The centre survives on the good will of the community and the time and generosity of the volunteers working in there. People have been generous by donating items for us to sell in the centre, decorating materials, and enormous amounts of time to paint, renovate, and even plumb in toilets and sinks! The Heart of Egremont certainly brings out the heart in people.
