Members of the Colwyn Heights community have been delighted to hear that their community centre is going green!
After an number of detailed applications to the Gwynt y Môr and Rhyl Flats Offshore Wind Farm Community Funds, trustees were pleased to hear that their goal to be more environmentally friendly was one that resonated well with the grant funders.
Now the process has been completed, the roof of the centre on Bryn Cadno has been fitted with state-of-the-art solar panels. As well as reducing the centres carbon footprint, the new panels will help reduce energy costs which take up a large slice of the centre's annual budget.
The centre has been an important part of life in Upper Colwyn Bay for many years and offers a range of facilites to the whole of the community.
The venue offers competitive rates for both one off and regular bookings, and is extremely versatile with rooms of various sizes. The centre is a registered charity run by volunteers and new recruits are always welcome to help with fundraising and other activities.
