Kibblesworth Millennium Centre

About Us
 

The project to create an outstanding Community Centre in the Village of Kibblesworth, Gateshead reached fruition in April 2001. The Millennium Centre was funded by a number of partners including the Millennium Commission, Gateshead Council, European Regional Development Fund, Northumbria Water Environmental Trust, Great North Forest project and the Countryside Agency.

The project has accomplished its aim to create a Village Centre for the 21st century and beyond, serving the social, educational, recreational and cultural needs of an isolated, rural former mining community. This was achieved as a result of the repair, conservation and sensitive enhancement of a building (the original former school) and site, that has, since 1875, been of great significance both architecturally and socially to the Village of Kibblesworth.

Externally, provision includes a safe toddler's play area, scented garden, general recreation area, secure car parking area and CCTV security system.

The Centre was officially opened by Her Royal Highness, The Princess Royal in April 2002.

Kibblesworth Village Millennium Centre has the following staffing establishment:

*Full-time Area Youth and Community Learning Worker

*Part-time Administration Worker

*Part-time Cleaner in charge

*947 hours part-time Youth and Community Learning Workers per year

A locally - elected Management Committee is responsible for the Management of the Centre.
