Welcome to Cantley Community Centre

Serving the Community


Cantley Library Closure

XMAS Opening Hours

Following the news that the current Cantley Library building has been deemed unsafe and will be closing at the end of October 2026, we’re pleased to share that Cantley Community Centre will be welcoming many of the library’s much-loved activities from November!
We’re delighted to be able to support the continuation of these valuable community services and ensure that local residents can still access many of the activities they know and enjoy.

A Library Hub will also be available at Cantley Community Centre, allowing residents to order books and collect books they have previously reserved.

From November, the following activities and services will be moving to the Centre:
Chair Yoga; Art Classes; Chatty Café; Citizens Advice Hub; IT for Health Courses; Knit & Natter and 8 Book Clubs
For further information about these activities, please speak to Rob, our Centre Manager.

Although it’s disappointing to see the current library building close, we’re really pleased to be able to offer a temporary home for these important services while arrangements for the new library premises are finalised, hopefully during 2027. Cantley Community Centre is here for our community, and we’re proud to be able to help keep these services running.

A big well done to Ian and Sean (pictured), who have successfully completed their First Aid training and received their certificates. Keeping our staff training up to date is an important part of making sure Cantley Community Centre remains a safe and welcoming place for everyone who comes through our doors. Well done to both!

About Us

A Brief History

 

Cantley Community Centre began life as the South Cantley Community Association in 1998, when a group of local residents took over the former Cantley first School building. Since then there have been many trials, tribulations and successes culminating today with a social amenity that is a registered charity and a Company Limited by Guarantee, offering a range of educational, social, academic and leisure facilities. It is open to all members of the community regardless of social standing, gender, political and religious beliefs, age or race.
