Cortonwood Comeback Community Centre was established in 1986 by members of the local community who recognised the need to tackle the problems of unemployment, exclusion and disadvantage in Brampton Bierlow and surrounding areas in the aftermath of the miner’s strike. Our Centre has always been run and managed by volunteers. Throughout our history, it has never had a paid manager and many of our groups are run by volunteers who give their time and expertise freely to the Community Centre. The Centre aims to help overcome the inequalities and lack of access to services that have a direct impact on the lives of the elderly, young people, and those on low incomes. We aim to advance education and provide facilities for recreation and leisure time, with the objective of improving people’s quality of life Providing a community service that’s needs-led, we adapt services to the needs of the community at any given time.

We are run by volunteers and donations . We started from a gravel machinery storage yard , no soil, imprenatable ground , it has been a slow development but now we have a large greenhouse full of produce, nearly two sheds! And 26 occupied small garden plots . We desperately need a safe pathway into the gardens and to landscape the entrance section but it’s a challenge we are up for . We welcome more volunteers to help us progress this to a place to sit or wander whilst listening to the birds! Any help welcomed .
