For the next few months we are trialling extending our opening hours on a Saturday to 3pm. Which provides more opportunities to grab a bargain or chill out in our tranquil Contemplation Garden by the river. Starts this Saturday, 12th April.

We have an exciting new class starting on Monday 28th April at the Bridgend Centre. Contact us for more information or just turn up!

We still have some places left on this Wednesday’s ‘Shuttle to the Shops’ to Stockport Town Centre. Contact us to book on!

We are thrilled to be taking part in the Macclesfield Bikeathon on Saturday 17th May in partnership with Just Drop In. With three different routes to choose from, there really is something for everyone.

If you would like to take part in a fun cycle around the Macclesfield area and also raise money for us at the same time, sign up here: https://www.justdropin.co.uk/about-us/macclesfield-bikeathon/ You can raise funds for us here: https://www.justgiving.com/bridgendcentre

In addition, we will be holding a stall at the Bikeathon start point in Macclesfield Market Square which is hugely exciting as it will allow us to reach a wider audience in Macclesfield!

Due to the weather forecast of more snow this afternoon and freezing temperatures overnight, we have made the decision to cancel tomorrow’s walk and Shuttle to the Shops trip.

Apologies for any inconvenience caused and normal service will hopefully resume next week.

What a year 2024 has been for the Bridgend Centre! As with all years, there have been highs, lows and change aplenty.

We ended the year on a really positive note with confirmation that we have secured funding from the National Lottery to transform the first floor of the Centre which will allow us to expand the services we deliver to our community.

There is always lots going on at the Centre and every day is a hive of activity here but here is a selection of photos which gives a glimpse of what goes on.

We are very fortunate to have wonderful support from the local community, whether it is in the form of donations, skills or coming in to chat and brighten up our day. Thank you to everyone who contributes to our Centre and we wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

The Bridgend Winter Prize Draw was ‘drawn’ yesterday afternoon at our Christmas Party. The draw raised over £1,100 for the Bridgend Centre, which is absolutely amazing.

A huge THANK YOU goes to the donors of all the prizes including Love Bollington Market, Conduct IT, Broadheads Garage, Belfields Village Bakery, the Adelphi Group, Jo’s Nail Room, Woofingtons, Off the Leash, Loose Leaf, Solu Candles, Run Draw Walk, David Steeden, Bollipots and Anna Barker. We really couldn’t do it without you!
