Main services, Enterprises and Activities
Room hire, events and office facilities at the Brunel Street Centre, including a community garden, in which the Centre accommodates a wide range of autonomous groups;

Young Children & Parents Project, including a staffed Parent & Toddler Group, children’s craft sessions and development of play and child care services in the area;
Community Access to Lifelong Learning Project (basic computer and English (ESOL) classes, most with crèche facilities, Adult Learners events and associated community development;

Riverside Luncheon Club and associated development work with older people, together with management of the Wyndham Street Centre;

Riverside Warehouse Project, developing young people’s provision in association with Safer Cardiff Ltd.’s ReStart Project, planned to operate at the Riverside Warehouse from 2006.

Emerging & Proposed Future Developments
The Centre’s management and development activity for young people at Riverside Warehouse is expected to lead to the securing of a third local community base this year, following the management of Wyndham Street Centre from 2005 and the continuing growth of the Riverside Luncheon Club and the new Riverside Food Co-op.

Preparatory work is underway to develop childcare and play training and provision through a community enterprise, and to improve the buildings and facilities at each of these centres through grant funding, adding to the Centre’s property assets.
