We are the social and information hub for West Howe. We work to enhance all the opportunities for the West Howe Community, especially relating to physical and mental health, education, the environment, employment training and opportunities, financial poverty, and the ability to improve life skills. We actively promote social inclusion, equality and diversity.
West Howe Community Enterprises was established by local residents in 2009 to improve communications about the area and make this a better place to live. We have since become a registered Company and a registered Charity.
Our group improves communication in the area by coordinating activities, learning opportunities and by providing safe places to meet.
We run the Inspiring Change Charity Shop in Cunningham Crescent where you can buy low cost goods in store. You can donate your unwanted items by dropping them into the shop. We also run Henry's Cafe inside the Henry Brown centre and manage the building as a community asset. We co-ordinate a host of activities for and with the community including social and support groups, training workshops, a community cinema and much more.
