    Supporting Organisations

    Havant Borough Council, who own the building, takes responsibility for the external maintenance and grounds.

    An appointed councillor sits on the board, adding value to the way we do things.

    The new Sainsbury’s at Waterlooville has donated funds and materials to the Centre. These donations, coupled with those from Waitrose and ASDA, has made a significant difference to the services and facilities we offer to our local residents.

    ASDA continues to work closely with the Community Centre and has made a significant contribution to our kitchen facilities, ensuring we are able to offer residents a subsidised lunch club.  Local businesses in Waterlooville are always incredibly supportive when it comes to contributions for fund-raising events.
