Great Get Together

We are planning a Great Get Together event at the community centre, and you're all invited! There will be an afternoon of fun activities and taster sessions, followed by a family disco and community barbecue.

Limes Stay and Play Not running Until Further Notice

Unfortunately Tuesday's Limes Stay and Play session at the centre will not be running until further notice as discussions are still being had regarding the future of such groups around Bristol.

Mors Bag Making at the Centre Sunday 22nd April 2-4pm

A get together to make Morsbags out of recycled fabrics - get scouring the charity shops for old tablecloths, curtains etc. We will provide a warm comfy hall and lashings of tea.

Currently one sewing machine confirmed, but you are welcome to bring your own if you have one. No sewing experience necessary, Morsbags are really easy to make (and cutting out is all straight lines). Children welcome, as long as they come with a grown-up.

Read more about Morsbags here:http://www.morsbags.com/

Space for new groups

Big changes at the community centre. One of our longest term hirers, Rebecca Reid School of Dance, will be leaving us after Easter for a new venue in Kingswood. We would like to wish Becky and her students all the best in their new home. Whilst we are obviously sad to see them go, this does open up the opportunity for new groups and classes at the community centre. We would love to hear your suggestions for what you would like to see.

We have regular slots available on Saturday mornings, as well as Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays after school. We are also keen to hear from you if you would like to organise a community event at the centre, we are always open to suggestions!

Don't Forget to Recycle When You Are at the Centre!

Don't forget to recycle when you use the centre and use our recycling station.

AGM - Sunday 4th March 2-3pm.

If you love St George, and want to get more involved in your local community, then you need to join us on Sunday 4 March. Now we know that the words Annual General Meeting sound very official (and dare we say it, dull?) But really this is your chance to get together with your neighbours over a cuppa and find out some of the things we have planned for the community centre this year.

We will present our accounts, so you can see where our money comes from and what we do with it. We will also be joined by Mark from UWE, who will be sharing some exciting plans we have for the outside space at the centre.

In these days of council cutbacks, let's look after the spaces that are still in community ownership. This is your community centre, get involved!

All welcome. Bring the kids too - we will have some toys and activities to keep them occupied.

New Leaflets for 2018

Our new leaflets for 'What's on 2018' are here! Come and pick one up at the centre to find out what is on at the centre.

The Arts Trail is Fast Approaching!

The St George Arts Trail is fast approaching and we are a venue! Come along and see the art at the centre. We also have 'Playing Out' outside the centre during the day too.

Bags of Help

We have been shortlisted for a Tesco Bags of help grant. We could get up to £4,000 to transform the outside space at the community centre, but only if you vote for us!

If you shop at a local Tesco (list below), please talk to one of the staff and ask for a blue token. You do need to make a purchase but there is no minimum spend.

Thanks for your help, now tell your friends!
