Are you a community-based centre or venue in and around Colchester who offers community based provision? If so, then why not be part of our partnership and enjoy the endless benefits. Contact us on 01206 870266 for more details.
Community Halls in partnership is kindly funded by the LAA thriving Third sector fund and administered through Essex Community Foundation. It has enabled four community halls in Colchester to centralise the management and administration system which has ensured consistency and cost–effectiveness.
Currently, Community Centre Associations that are operating from community buildings are more likely to be operating in isolation, rather than working collaboratively. A ‘network’ of community buildings implies much greater communication and collaboration between the Community Centre Associations, creating a number of opportunities including: - integration of different sectors of the local and wider community.
- joint promotion of activities – through a varied range of publicity.
- wider access to users – DDA compliance, alcohol license, green space, opening times, locations.
- sharing of good practice, up to date legislations, staff/volunteer training & support, sharing contacts and networks
- joint access to funding streams
