Sited over 2 floors. DISABLED ACCESS - FREE INTERNET.

Initially funded by the regeneration scheme and then lottery funding, The Waterside Weymouth Community Forum is a Registered Charity, set up over 15 years ago. In November 2006 we moved into the Park Church Hall and became the first active Community Centre in the area. Since which time it has become the foundation stone of a united, informed and socially aware Community within the Park Area of Weymouth.

 

The centre is run by the Waterside Community Forum,  there are no paid employees, all work is carried out by volunteers, All funding is achieved through applications for grants and donations as well as the odd bit of fund raising. We are always in need of more volunteers, and it doesnt matter what your own skills might be we can certainly find a use for them at the centre.

 

We are community led, if there is a need for a course or group and we can either get funding to cover the cost of the course or group, or there is a strong enough comittment from the community to cover the costs of the sessions they we will try our hardest to satisfy that need. So if you want to start up a new group and need some space, why not pop along and see if we can  help you. We can offer a place on our message boards as well as some basic advertising for your group within our newsletters and community boards .

 

But volunteers are always in demand, even if it is only for 1 hour a week, if you could give us some of your time on a regular basis we can offer more back to the community.

A MESSAGE FROM KEN WHATLEY

 

I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who attended the Christmas Show for making my last commitment as Chairman so enjoyable. I would also like to thank everyone who contributed to my retirement gifts and I shall treasure them, apart from the bottles. I wish John Morse all the best for the future and know that the Committee will help him to become a good Chairman and hope the Community give him the same support that they gave me. All the best for the future.

Ken Whatley.
