As part of its aim to regenerate Alfreton town, Councillors have agreed in principle to support community organisations and community members with the development of a “Community Hub“ in the town centre.
A community hub is a space for any groups to use that will directly benefit the users and people of Alfreton.
Ideas for the range of activity at the hub are welcomed- already in consideration is;
somewhere to meet, sit and talk, sing, dance, exercise
a learning area from homework, health, support for long term conditions
a food bank
appointment space for community services such as Citizens Advice Bureau & Age UK advice,
wifi access points
youth craft activity
Lead Member for regeneration, Councillor David Taylor said ‘The members of Alfreton Town Council are enthusiastic and committed to regenerating the Town. This is one of many projects highlighted that will involve the community in making Alfreton a better place to live, work and visit’
