About us

Situated in the heart of South West Burnley, we are an integral part of local community life for many hundreds of people. Our building is situated alongside the residential and industrial estates, bordered by Accrington Road, Rossendale Road and Manchester Road.

We are easy accessible by foot and car, lying alongside Rossendale Road with our own car parking space and easy access to near-by bus stops, either on Rossendale Road or Harold Avenue.

Our centre was built in 1999 as a local focal point for the provision of a range of services based on youth and community support and social welfare, such as locally based training and employment support, volunteering opportunities and family-based services. Facilities include meeting rooms, computer room, professional catering standard kitchen and café area, plus individual offices for rent with support services for tenants.

Set-up as a limited company by guarantee, our finance comes through various funding streams such as European Regional Development Fund through Burnley Borough Council and Learning and Skills Council support through Burnley College. The Tudor Trust has been a major financial contributor and supporter.
