Glencorse Centre

The Glencorse Centre – Making lasting Connections in our community

We’re a small, charity-run community centre in Auchendinny. Our overarching aim is to help to build, encourage and sustain lasting connections within our community and beyond. We’re here for everyone, no matter what you do, how old you are, where you’re from, or who you love, there’s something for you at the Glencorse Centre.

We have a lovely community hall where lots of small local businesses run classes including yoga, baby massage, fitness classes, dances classes for all ages, art classes, mental health and wellbeing groups, local craft groups and more. To find out more about the classes and activities we facilitate, check out our website
