Whitehead Community Association

Services

The centre was refurbished 2007 / 2008 and has excellent accommodation for events and meetings, etc., with free parking outside.  Further renovations in 2019 / 2020 resulted in a new community hub which provides an office for centre management, an exhibition space and a tourism hub.

A large hall is available, with a stage, and is suitable for dances, sports, sales promotions, pantomimes, public meetings, etc and can accommodate up to 230 people (seated). A kitchen is available for use only with the main hall (at additional cost).

The upstairs conference room can seat 60 people, theatre style, and there is also a committee room: and a smaller room, which can be hired out as a meeting room and is used for counselling services.  The upper floor also contains three office spaces which are currently leased to small start up businesses.

There is a lift (suitable for disabled access) to the upper floor and facilities suitable for use by people with a disability.

The new Whitehead Centre exhibition space can be hired out by local artists to exhibit their work and is also used for pop up shops for local and national charity groups such as Royal British Legion, Royal National Lifeboat Institute, Leukaemia and Lymphoma NI, McMillan Cancer.
