The A Team (right)
Our first Quiz night of the year was on Saturday 27 January. It was a real success and enjoyed by all.
Also included in the night was a raffle at half time and many of the prizes were donated by local retailers in Emsworth Town including, Star the Butcher, Tiers the Veg shop, Gift Box, Harbour Records Ken and Rob and Vin the Wine merchants. So a big Thankyou to them all, and everyone who attended. Well done to everyone, especially the winners.
It was a great night and there will be others throughout the year.
Youth Day
The youth day on the 12 Feb saw many happy 11-16 year olds having lots of fun.
We had games of all kinds all around the centre, including Nerf wars, dodge ball, painting and Table tennis to name a few. The entrance was £3 per child which included a pizza lunch.
We also had a tuck shop in the Galley Cafe.
Thank you to all the Volunteers who gave up their time to entertain and assist the children in their fun day.
Local Phamacy
The Emsworth Community Centre would like to say a big thankyou to The Emsworth Pharmacy and all their customers for their donations from the counter donation box.
Thank you so much for your support
Rooms refurbished with newly painted walls and new chairs.
Throughout the last few months The Mumford rooms 1-2 and 3 have been refurbished, newly painted walls and new floors in all of them.
We have also updated our chairs.
Great feedback has been received from our Members and Hirers for all the changes we have made.
We want to say a big Thank you to all the Hirers for their patience while they have changed rooms so we could undertake these updates.
Trustees required
Emsworth Community Association manages Emsworth Community Centre for the benefit of the local community.
The Centre hosts over eighty different activities each week for people of all ages, from dance and exercise classes through to films, social events, art and adult educational classes.
Emsworth Library and Emsworth Men’s Shed are located within its premises.
Emsworth Community Association is funded mainly by its members, fundraising and room hire.
Trustees meet monthly for a couple of hours in the evening.
Some trustees offer hands on support to community activities, such as table tennis and youth days.
Support will be provided so a lack of knowledge about trustee duties is not an issue.
Please look at our website (under construction) and our Facebook page for further information about the centre.
