ABOUT US
OUR JOURNEY
Every organisation has a story, and ours is probably not much different from any other. What stands Rhythm Community Centre out from the rest is that our idea has been born from the first hand experiences of the committee members. We have seen the effect on the community when there is no focal point for the youth to channel their time, energy and efforts in a positive and safe environment
We began with a small idea which would enable us to get some of these youngsters together and provide a few hours a week of activities for them whilst at the same time being a point of contact for guidance and support. We deliberately focused on specialist activities such as horse riding, wall climbing, fencing, kayaking, canoeing and archery to name but a few.
