The Drumfork Community Centre in Helensburgh is one of the largest ever projects undertaken by the Royal Navy and Royal Marines Charity.
A once much-visited hub for the submariner community, the Drumfork Centre had fallen into a serious state of disrepair following years of use. However, it has now been completely renovated by the RNRMC, their key strategic partner Greenwich Hospital and the Royal Naval Association, as part of a £3 million project.
The newly developed multi-purpose facility will offer a varied programme of activities and facilities, as well as a nursery, to the service and wider community in and around the Helensburgh area. The Centre also provides a variety of flexible hireable rooms available for small or large group activities. The aim of the centre is to promote, enable and facilitate inclusive activities which embrace and address the education, training, employment, welfare, health, social, cultural and recreational needs of the local community.
Centre Manager, Shelley Gilmour, said "we are forever indebted to the help and support RNRMC have given us and continue to give us. I don't know where we would be without them."
