Objectives

Penderyn Community Centre is a small but growing voluntary organisation serving the people of Penderyn & surrounding areas and providing a wide variety of activities for all ages and abilities. It is a registered charity managed by a Board of Trustees and a recently employed Development Officer (funded for 2 years by the National Lottery); we manage the Community Centre, Yr Eithin (our ancient woodland) and the Penderyn Village Pantry (a food waste/food poverty initiative), all of which we are immensely proud. We have a team of over 35 regular volunteers and plan to recruit more and eventually to provide local employment in this beautiful but semi-rural part of Wales. We also have ambitious plans for future expansion of our services including a pop-up café, book clubs, yoga and much more.

Activities

We hold a huge range of activities from Cylch Meithrin, yoga, Community Choir, seated exercises, indoor Kurling, warm hubs, community coffee mornings. We also have our volunteer led Village Pantry; the volunteers collect donated food 6 nights a week, bring it back to our big blue container and then the food is distributed to our local community. We also offer a food bank for people who are in more emergency need.
