New activities at community centre

-

ROSEBERY Community Centre in Loughborou­gh has started a series of new diverse day time activities.

A spokespers­on for the group told the Echo: “The centre on Storer Road has always been important in serving the local community in the Rosebery and Storer Road area.

“Over the years the demographi­c in the immediate vicinity of the community centre has changed from a neighbourh­ood with lots of families to a predominan­tly student population.

“As a consequenc­e of this change the centre has lost some of its local community and family oriented activities like mums and toddler groups, Scouts, youth clubs.

“However, the centre still has over 20 different user group activities available throughout the week, catering for the broader Loughborou­gh community area.

“To add to these user groups the centre has recently started a series of diverse day time activities. These new activities take place in the mornings or afternoons and everyone is very welcome to come and join in.”

If you enjoy art and craft and enjoy making things then the Arty Crafty club on Monday afternoons might interest you, it lasts for two hours.

If you like sewing and knitting then there is a creative group just for you on Wednesdays from 10.30am to noon. There is also a singing group from 1.30pm to 3pm, which started on Thursday, November 14.

There is also a gentle exercise group that meets on a Thursdays from 1pm to 3pm which includes, New Age Kurling, Indoor Bowls and Boccia.

In addition there is another new age Kurling group that meets on a Monday afternoon at 1.30pm.

There is a small charge of £3 for each of these activities except the Monday kurling group which costs £3.50, all the activities listed include tea and biscuits.
