The Rockingham Community Centre is up and running, and if you haven’t got involved yet, do! Activities, Workshops, Hireable Spaces, all being hosted for you...

We love enthusiasm! If you are a Rockingham Estate resident and would like to get involved; whether that’s organising an activity, or joining our volunteers team to help run the community centre, send us an email atcommunityrockingham@gmail.com
