Milford on Sea Community Centre
Milford on Sea Community Centre provides a focal point for all ages with activities aimed to enhance the lives of those residing in the local area. Our plans for 2021 are to return, as soon as it is safe to do so, to the wide-ranging activities we have spent the last 10 years creating and developing.
The Centre sponsors and supports the Seahorses playgroup and its own Youth Club, plus some activities for its more vulnerable groups - for example, the Alzheimers Society, the Stroke Survivors Group and a monthly Sunday Lunch Club aimed at local people who live on their own. There are also many exercise and dance classes, for all ages and abilities.
The Community Centre reached its 10th Anniversary in September 2020 and continues to be in great demand. Many local and national charities and interest groups use the Centre to meet and are also welcome to hold events to reach their fundraising goals.
Regular events run by the Centre include movies, live screenings, Folk Club, Jazz/Swing evenings, Blues Nights, Comedy Nights, poetry and play-reading groups, and live entertainment, often in cabaret style with supper included.
The success of the Centre has been thanks to the dedication of a huge number of volunteers who provide vital support to the running of the Centre. They help run the bar and the box office and help in the kitchen, the café and the Charity Shop and, most importantly, they guarantee a warm welcome to all.
