The Old School building has been at the heart of the Community for nearly 150 years, and we need your help to ensure it is warm, dry and welcoming for another 150 years. We are consulting on an exciting and ambitious programme of rejuvenation. Head over to our Rejuvenating the Centre page to see how you can help!
