All Change at the Centre
Ownership transfers to the Community

Wirral Council is transferring a lot of its property portfolio and as a result the Community Centre is one of those earmarked as part of this process.

It is very early days yet but by all accounts the process should take place over the next 6 months or so and we will be informed along with other partners across the Wirral (including Vale House Community Centre) of the due processes including legal responsibilities, financial, and a whole host of other issues that we will need to have in place before this transfer can take place.

Centre leads the fight for local jobs for local peoplelighthouse

    

A 3 year government £28m initiative called the Working Neighbourhoods Fund designed to get people off benefits and into work in those areas designated super output locations has been announced for the Wirral.

New Brighton is one of those areas and is hopeful that current expectations can be met to translate the mantra local jobs local people into action on the ground. New Brighton Community Centre says that there couldn’t be a better time to put the Governments words into action. With a record number of people out of work, for instance New Brighton has Job Seekers Allowance (JSA) claimants (aged 25-49) ; Incapacity claimants and total claimants higher than the Wirral average.

“Local jobs bonanza looms as Neptune New Brighton scheme gathers pace”

Community Centre Chairman Tony Jones says; “that given these statistics and the Governments commitment to end the benefit culture that is rife in an area like New Brighton along with the thousands of jobs that will be created by the Neptune scheme (that has already started with the new Floral Pavilion Theatre), this fund could not have come at a better time. It is designed to help eradicate the curse of unemployment which at the same time it gives the outputs the government is looking for to get people back into work within those indicated timescales of 2 to 3 years. It’s vitally important that we grab this one off opportunity so that it  translates into action, Tony continued that we are determined to pursue this to ensure New Brighton residents get first say on these jobs”

Wallasey MP Angela Eagle surfing @ New Brighton OnlineWhat can the Internet do for you?

The possibilities will soon be endless at New Brighton Community Centre. New Brighton community centre in Hope Street is to become a UK online centre which is part of the Government's efforts to give as many local residents in the New Brighton area free access to computers and the Internet. The successful bid for a UK online Centre which will have an open access policy will transform the Community Centre and more importantly it will offer services to people who have limited or no access to skills in using new technologies.

"We aim to provide the residents of New Brighton with a local drop-in centre that will have free access to computers & the Internet, and which will compliment the existing facilities in the area at Vale House Community Centre"

Tony Jones - Chair - New Brighton Community Centre.

The Building now includes , a lift and a brand new seminar area with state of the art presentational facilities which will be available to local organisations and groups. The Centre also offers enhanced facilities which has open up a wider range of Community activities than were previously available.
