Thornton Community centre has had a huge makeover during the past 3 years with over £98,000 spent on repairs and refurbishment. It is an ideal venue for parties, weddings, group and sporting activities, business meetings and so much more.

The centre consists of two halls, the Main hall has a large stage for theatre performances and live bands, and has commanding views over the National Forest and Thornton reservoir. Just off the main hall there is a small meeting room. Patio doors lead onto a large grassed area with a footpath leading to two childrens’ playgrounds and onwards down to the reservoir where there is a 3.2 mile circular walk. The Sports hall, is connected through a small passageway and boasts a new kitchen and new, unisex toilets. The halls can be hired separately or together. There is a free car park.
