Canolfan Gorseinon Centre is Completed 

Newly opened, the new Centre is the result of 6 years work between Gorseinon Town Council, Gorseinon Development Trust, the City and County of Swansea and the European Regional Development Fund.

The Centre provides a state of the art eco building and is being managed by the Gorseinon Development Trust and provides:

  • A healthy living cafe juice bar called Zest for Life
  • A full child day care facility called Trusting Hands Day Nursery
  • Spaces for new buisness (at time of press only one unit still available) and
  • A modern practical arts training facility operated by Gorseinon College

 

 

The Centre boasts 3 public meeting rooms and a conference facility for 150 people with all the latest information technology.

Our Official Opening in September 2008 will see all these new facilities up and running.

For more information about our services please call into the Centre during the week

The facility involves the construction of an iconic building that includes a multi-pupose hall/conference room, training rooms, office space for small businesses, a creche and a healthy living juice bar/cafe.

The logo above has been designed for the new Centre and depicts the building's outline against the sky.

Construction work is now well underway on the new landmark building and progress photographs, details of office space availability and other information on the Centre can be found by clicking the appropriate links on the left.      

 

Partners behind the Canolfan Gorseinon Centre gathered at the former Bryngwyn Steelworks site for a groundbreaking cermemony on 26 April 2007.

Swansea Council, Persimmon Homes, The Welsh Assembly Government and Gorseinon College are among the organisations involved in the scheme.

WRW Construction Ltd are undertaking the construction phase and The Gorseinon Development Trust, headed by Kelvin Jones, Trust Manager, will be running the Centre upon completion.

The project is being funded by the Welsh European Funding Office (WEFO).

The building was deisgned by Boyes Rees Architects and is due to be completed in July 2008.
