Newent Community Centre, photo taken at front of building on a sunny day

In 2016, Newent Community Centre was purchased by Glebe Chapel, who, at the time were looking for a building to expand into to further develop their community-focused services. At the time of purchase, there were approximately 15 groups using the centre and, had the building passed into commercial/ business ownership, it would have been lost as a resource for the people of Newent and surrounding areas. 

Through a phased programme of development, Glebe Chapel is updating the facilities and increasing the number and range of users. This has required careful management of resources and giving by members and, to date, over £1.1m has been invested to develop the centre.
