Event- Celebrating the Multiple realities of Black People
A family fun day event to mark the celebration of the 2024 Black History month here at the Old Boat
The Old Boat Corner Community Centre is a home away from home, a place where you can relax, play and make mess, seek help, eat and drink, and enjoy the variety of activities and facilities readily available to all ages and abilities.
Our event spaces host a range of private and community-run classes and groups, from mother and baby, soft play and arts and craft, to coffee mornings for the older generation, charitable fundraisers and a variety of sports groups. There is something for everyone!
Parties are also catered for, as the centre offers a large sports hall, a family room as well as other facilities, all available for hire. These are ideal for parties, sport clubs, training sessions, meetings, and a licensed bar can be provided should you require one.
Most importantly the centre is a warm and welcoming place, where you can get information, knowledge, and help within a caring community space.
The Centre Cafe serves hot and cold food and drinks, and is open 7 days a week from 9am to 5pm. Click here for the menu.
