Abergavenny Community Centre

The Community Centre is a place that brings people together to do everyday things to stay connected and well.

Residents have championed the case for LOCAL THINGS TO DO and PLACES TO BE. The response takes the form of a Community Centre that is run by Abergavenny Community Trust, a local charity supported by volunteers.

Who? Where? What? How?
The Abergavenny Community Trust is a local Charity that's purposely set up and organized by residents, for wider community benefit. The Trust governs the work of the Abergavenny Community Centre which raises income through room hire, food & refreshments, and individual donations.

Getting behind the Trust's work will keep the watchful eyes and ears of a community active at the grassroots where it can have the greatest impact.

A one-off donation made through our fundraising platform, below, will help a great deal, and, if you decide to set up a monthly standing order please contact us directly for details.

Please do come to the Centre where you will soon get to know more about the wider work that's taking place.

Thank you for reading this. Marion Pearse, Charity Co-Founder
