Redecorated hall

Built in 1934 Easington Social Welfare Centre was the central facility in Easington Colliery supporting the welfare and social life of the former mining community. Paid for through subscriptions by the miners themselves, this majestic old building has been at the heart of this community ever since it was built. Although in need of major refurbishment (estimated at £1.7 million) the management committee are striving to improve this facility so it can cater for the communities’ needs, their future development and individual dreams.

At present the centre has a number of regular user groups and events and is looking to expand upon the services that it provides. If you are a local group or organisation who are seeking premises please contact us as our management committee will be eager to assist you.  As a registered charity Easington Social Welfare Centre is a facility for the community in the heart of Easington Colliery. It is managed by Committee/Trustees who care for our community and are interested in the long-term development of Easington Colliery.
