Community Engagement Activities

We believe everyone should have the opportunity to be fully involved in their community, enjoying activities and events designed for people of all ages and backgrounds – that’s why we are continually increasing the number of areas in Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin and the surrounding region where we offer provision.

The majority of our activities are offered for free, with the rest being affordably priced to minimise financial barriers to attendance.
