Meir Community Centre

Opening of the new Community Centre in Meir, May 2009
Region: Meir

A pair of ordinary semi-detached houses on The Square in Meir have been transformed by Great Places Housing Group and RENEW North Staffordshire into a new community resource centre for local people. The local authority homes have been opened up with the use of a new internal steel structure to provide large meeting spaces a kitchen and offices. This picture was taken at the official opening in May 2009.

I will be glad to go. It’s not a nice place to live... There’s no community left here any more.
Linda Coates, Middleport
I want to see the residents of this area having a voice and RENEW to take account of their views.
Steven Pritchard, Cobridge
