Putting the Community in the Centre

Waid Community Use operates within the Waid Community Campus.  Waid Community Use opened in 1974, with the McArthur Community Sports Centre completed in 2003.  Our aim is to promote participation in sport, learning and leisure activities.

We offer a range of evening classes to suit different ages, interests and ability levels.  Full details of all our classes, facilities and programme leaflets are available from reception.  The programme changes from time to time, check this website for particulars.
