About Pelsall Community Centre
What We Do
Pelsall Community Centre is a venue for the social, educational and recreational needs of the village and wider community. We are a registered charity and volunteer ran venue in the heart of Pelsall in Walsall, West Midlands.
We pride ourselves on being a place where people of all ages in the community can attend classes and events, or even host their own celebrations.
From karate to art, dancing to knitting and singing to keep fit we have something to interest you. Alongside this we regularly host live events and shows as well as community meet ups for all ages.
Our History
In 1946 the Pelsall Community Association was formed and the Pelsall Community Centre was officially opened on 4th September 1965 by Sir Alfred Owen, CBE.
The original grounds for the centre was part of the Oaklands House Estate on Station road, previously owned by the Binns Family as well as Thomas Starkey, well known within Pelsall History.
In 1974 the building was extended when the Oaklands Lounge & Bar were added.
