How to Join
At the moment the Centre does not have a membership fee and you can join in most activities by just coming along. Some of the classes, however, are for pre-arranged groups.
For most classes you pay as you go, depending on the cost of the activity. There are so many classes that it is best to come along to the Centre and ask for a copy of the annual "News in Brief" publication which outlines the Centre Programme for the year ahead.
Many of the Adult Learning classes and Youth Clubs are free of charge, so please ask the reception staff for advice on availability and cost.

Monday to Friday, 9.00 am - 10.00 pm
Saturday, 9.00 am - 1.00 pm
