Purpose & Motivation

The Abergavenny Community Trust is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) Registered charity number 1177133

The Community Centre is tapping and combing local resources – human, natural, built, financial – to improve life and outcomes for ordinary people.

At its core, underpinning the work of the Community Trust are two charitable objectives, summarised as follows:

*To improve the lives of the diverse residents of Abergavenny by working with the local authorities, voluntary sector, other organisations and community groups to provide an opportunity for residents to mix together and enjoy educational, social, welfare, leisure and recreational activities in a welcoming facility.

*To maintain and manage the Abergavenny Community Centre in furtherance of this common purpose, through income generation and rental fees.

It all starts here. The Centre is a lightly held space where local priorities, problems and solutions are invited to coincide and form unique community responses at a neighbourhood level.

Securing a built asset for this vital purpose is a foundation step in an ambitioius community informed, long-term plan to help neighbourhoods become stronger and safer – one person, and one street at a time.

While our focus remains firmly in the moment, the architect’s concept above [c2008] captures a vision for how the building may continue to serve communities and neighbourhoods into the future.
