Westfield House is new home for Corstorphine Community Centre

The Management Committee and staff of Corstorphine Community CCC are delighted to confirm that as from Monday 20th June, their new base will be at Westfield House, 5 Kirk Loan, Corstorphine, opposite the Astoria Hall.

We are continuing to pursue the option of a Community Asset Transfer in order than we can occupy the premises on a permanent basis.

We are in the midst of organising the new building and it is planned that activities / groups will recommence from 4th July with the shop operating from the ground floor of the building.

Contact details remain the same for the new location:

Corstorphine Community Centre latest

Statement from CCC management committee 13/04/22:

Following on from the previous update provided in terms of the future temporary location of the Hub and shop, various options for alternative sites have been assessed and either rejected or investigated further.

At this point, CCC’s Management Committee are in negotiations concerning a locally, Corstorphine-based property which we anticipate will house all activities currently undertaken in the Hub, including the workshop.

It is fully accessible and will provide space for the shop to continue operating.

Subject to successful lease negotiations, it is planned that all operations will move in advance of June 23rd when the lease on our current site at 191 St John’s Road expires.

We will continue to update staff, volunteers, our members and the local community as we make progress in securing this alternative site for CCC’s operations whilst we continue with the Community Asset Transfer.

Corstorphine Community Centre update

Statement from the CCC Management Committee (25/2/22):

We can now confirm that as of 23rd June 2022, CCC will be vacating their current premises at 191 St John’s Road after being served formal notice by the site’s owners. This is in line with neighbouring units.

We are currently in the process of assessing alternative sites for the continuation of  activities currently undertaken by the various groups who use the Hub and are consulting with the group leaders.

In respect of the charity shop, this will continue to operate as usual up until the end of the lease and in the meantime we are also looking at alternatives as to where the shop may be based in the future. We are also communicating with the shop supervisors.

We will continue to update the local community, our members, volunteers and staff as we make progress to identify and hopefully secure other premises.

If anyone has any ideas or suggestions for alternative premises for the shop or activities please let us know via admin@ccchub.online’
