In the charity's own words

We operate West End Community Centre & we took this over in October 2020 under an asset transfer from Lancashire County Council. We use the centre to run a wide variety of activities that benefit local children, young people & families, in addition to which we enable other VCFS organisations to deliver activities that meet local needs. We also run a charity shop that includes a food bank.
