LAWN COMMUNITY CENTRE  will be CLOSED  from Monday 17th August until Sunday 23rd August for maintenance.

During this period, we will be upgrading our room heating system, undertaking essential maintenance and giving the whole place a late spring clean. If you would like to help us, please come along and join our happy band of volunteers from 09:30 until 17:00 each day. We are always grateful for any help in keeping our local Centre in tiptop condition for you all to enjoy.

CAR PARK CLEANUP

A huge thank you to Mary Fishlock and "Garth's Gorgeous Gardeners" for a massive car park clean up, one again on Monday morning.

There is more to do, so if you would like to come along and join the merry team (coffee & biscuits are provided!), please give us a ring on 01793 651806 to find out when the next effort will take place. 

Following our clean up of the car park, which incidentally is the local council's and not the Lawn Centre, the parking lines have now also been repainted. Now that's a result we weren't expecting!

OUR CHARITIES for 2026

This year the Lawn Community association has nominated two charities to benefit from our donations.
