Featherston Community Centre is 100% Community Owned
Established in 1992, the Featherston Community Centre is owned by a trust on behalf of the community.

We provide reduced rent facilities and koha meeting options, so that everyone in the community can access support services and activities.
Rental fees cover half of our expenses, the remaining is sought in grants, donations and services in kind.
