Star Neighbourhood Centre

Star Neighbourhood Centre

The Star Neighbourhood Centre was opened in February 1990 and is located in the New Lodge area of Inner North Belfast.

Since its opening, the Star has been a focal point for the local community. 
 
The Star Neighbourhood Centre attempts to tackle social exclusion by promoting community development in all aspects of its work. This in turn builds the confidence, self-esteem and capacity of local people to participate in neighbourhood regeneration.
