LLANFAIRFECHAN COMMUNITY HALL

Llanfairfechan Community Hall has been part of the fabric of the town for over a hundred years. Our ambition is for this building to still be serving the community for at least the next 100 years. We want to offer a North Wales-wide cultural centre worthy of the 21st century, meeting diverse needs and offering fun for everyone.

The Hall has been run by a volunteer charity committee since 2011. The charity acquired the hall from Conwy County Borough Council at the end of 2024, after discussions about maintenance of the building.

The Hall is run by a committee of local volunteers and managed day to day by a member of staff. The Hall is financed through events, venue hire, donations and grant funding. Owning the building allows the charity to apply for grants, essential for the upkeep and maintenance of the Hall.

Our Spaces

Our community venue offers:

1. A large main hall with fully functioning stage area which can accommodate 300 people

2. A medium-sized conference room for up to 40 people

3. A community activity room that offers a low-cost hire for up to 15 people

4. A new learning suite with IT facilities for up to 20 learners - a 'Multiply' hub for Grwp Llandrillo Menai

We currently support over 30 different charities and organisations, giving them a home for their meetings and activities. The Hall also hosts Llanfairfechan Town Council meetings and the Town Clerk.

Current users of the Hall range from 3 months old to senior citizens, getting involved in:

Arts and crafts classes, exercise classes, sporting activities and clubs, charities, live music, theatre, cinema, children’s parties, artisan market, local interest groups, veterans’ breakfast club, and a youth club.

The Hall also runs its own events for the local community. We relaunched The Luxor Community Cinema in 2024, 60 years after the original Luxor closed its doors at the Hall. This provides local residents with a 'big screen' experience and the opportunity to watch locally made films.

Why we are raising money

The building needs a lot of maintenance work to make sure we can continue to serve the local community. It is a challenge to heat the Hall and keep it dry inside.

We suffered some vandalism which means we need to get a new front door. Your contribution will help towards this unexpected cost.

We also have a refurbishment plan which includes replacing our roof, allowing us to install solar panels. This will dramatically reduce our financial risk from rising energy costs and continue our goal of becoming self-sufficient.

This is a significant project and we appreciate any donation you are able to give.
