Volunteers Needed!

Volunteer opportunity available!

We would love to restart our baby and toddler group but need committed volunteers for this to happen.

Maybe you are a new mum or grandparent who would like to get to know other parents in and around Westminster Park.

Or perhaps you’re a born organiser who would like to get stuck into a new project.

The group doesn’t have to be over complicated it could even simply be an opportunity for parents to meet over a hot drink a couple of times a month.

Our hall availability is on Thursday’s early afternoons (excluding the 3rd Thursday of each month).

Please get in contact if this is something you would like to discuss further.

Westminster Park Community Centre News

We have a really exciting month ahead of us in September.

September celebrates the 50th anniversary of the community centre with a fantastic afternoon and evening planned on Saturday 9th September. Kick starting the event will be a talent show celebrating the talent of the younger generation here in Westminster Park. Please do come and support them! Moving into the evening we have live music from 8pm with Westminster Park resident Luos Johnson. It is a free event, no tickets are required, just show up and enjoy yourselves after all we really are lucky to have this superb facility on our doorstep!

September also brings us our first open mic night on Friday 15th September. Doors open at 7.30 and take to the mic from 8pm. There will be a great set up available to use including sound system, lights, monitors, guitar amp etc. So, whether you come to perform or to be an audience member you are guaranteed to have a fantastic night.

Our baby and toddler group for children aged from newborn to 4 years old returns on the 14th September and will continue on the 2ndand 4th Thursday of each month. There are lots of toys and activities to keep the children entertained and this truly is a fantastic way to meet other parents and grandparents in the area. Although the opening times are 1-2.30 don’t feel you need to get there at 1.00 if you have other commitments, it really is a relaxed environment! There is a small charge of £2 per family and all money goes to Finding Harmony a not for profit organisation who help support local families.

Belgrave Pre-schools doors will open again after the summer holidays and will be welcoming lots of new children as well as existing children who attend the setting. We wish them all well and hope everyone settles into their new routines quickly.
