February at Malling Community Centre brings a fabulous mix of clubs, classes and activities to help you feel great as Spring is on the horizon
Malling Community Centre was built in the early 1970s and has been extended twice since – once to provide sports changing facilities and once to provide a popular social club. Part of the building now houses East Sussex Children’s Services local centre, and the remaining community space is used for a host of activities and events.
Lewes Town Council began a comprehensive refurbishment of the centre in 2020, which saw it modernised and given a whole new lease of life. The centre re-opened in 2021 and hosts local groups, meetings and one-off events.
Malling Community Centre has two halls for hire: the Main Hall and the Small Hall, which can be divided in two for smaller groups. The centre is completely accessible and also has changing rooms with showers and a disabled changing room complete with a medical bed and wet room shower.
The centre is a 15 minute walk from Lewes town centre and a 25 minute walk from the train station. There is a small car park that is free of charge and is allocated on a first come first serve basis.
