January 2023 – room availability on Tuesdays and Wednesdays in our busy, community space The Derwent Room
The Derwent room continues to be our busiest and main community space, hosting our regular weekly groups and classes, parties, workshops and events.
Our newest room, the Wharfe, got a make-over in 2022 with a new refreshments area and became a popular space for small meetings and tuition. Contact us for information about availability and prices.
We continue to provide a warm and welcoming space for activities for children, work-related training, hobby groups, parties, support groups, local community groups, indoor exercise groups, meetings and much more.
You can find our timetable of activities and contact details for local groups running at the Hub on our ‘what’s on?’ page, or you can contact us during Hub office hours. All of our details are at the bottom of this page.
Community Projects
As a charity, we are proud to look after the wonderful spaces the Hub provides but are now also taking our services to the heart of our community.
“From rooms to hire, to the heart of the community”
In July 2022, the Hub took on the games hut at Conyngham Hall, which is now under community management. We had a very busy summer holiday period, with pitch and putt, crazy golf and tennis proving really popular. The kiosk has refreshments available and is made possible by the support of our volunteers. We have renamed this the Kiosk @ Conyngham and plan to open it during school holidays (weather permitting), so if you have some time to volunteer, please get in touch!
We have been working with Harrogate District of Sanctuary (HDoS), Harrogate Mind and Volunteers to provide information, support and activities for Ukrainian nationals who are currently living in the district as a result of the war in Ukraine, along with the families who are hosting them. We are hosting regular events at the Hub, including weekly ESOL lessons. If you would like to get involved or support this project, or if you are a host family, please get in touch. We have a private/closed Facebook group for our Ukrainian community and hosts and have a website full of information and resources. Friends of Ukraine website
