Lisburn Recreation and Community Hub was established in February 2020. We aim to offer affordable recreation and community facilities to all, regardless of age, gender or disability, while providing a home for sports clubs, youth groups, community groups and wider community across Lisburn City and wider area. Lisburn Recreation and Community Hub
provides and maintains community facilities with minimal charges that are used to sustain the facility for community benefit. Activities will include sport, health and wellbeing, community development, social activities and recreational interests. Lisburn Recreation and Community Hub is based in the city of Lisburn serving the surrounding areas including across Lisburn City and the wider Council area. We work in partnership with other local organisations and pursue better facilities for sporting, recreational and community participation. The hub will improve social cohesion to develop communities stronger and healthier. We aim to
- Deliver improved facilities to address sports, health and community facility deficit
- Create safe access to facilities for the wider community
- Improve both physical and mental health for local people
- Contribute to the community development in Lisburn
- Create hybrid community and recreational hub in the heart of Lisburn
- Improve basic community services for local population to improve health and wellbeing services and activities
- Provide shared space for recreational and community services for local people including young people, socially disadvantaged, older people and those with disability
- Generate wider community benefit through sport and non-sport activities, particularly in the areas of health and wellbeing, education skills and employment, social inclusion and volunteering by creating a sustainable model for delivery of new sporting and community facilities at Lisburn Community & Recreation Hub
