About

The Harrold Centre

Harrold Centre sits at the centre of village life for the community of Harrold in North Bedfordshire. Formerly known as the Harrold Institute, it was built in 1901 and the main hall added in 1911.  The two separate buildings were bequeathed to the village in the early 1970s. A new trust was set up to manage and improve the facilities.  At this time, the Centre we see today was created by linking the two buildings together with a new entrance lobby and washroom facilities.

Located in the very heart of the village, Harrold Centre is more than a building and more than the activities taking place within it.  It is where and how people can become involved in the community and village life.  Not only does it improve individual quality of life by contributing to social, physical, economic, educational and environmental wellbeing, it also positively impacts on the social cohesion of the village through the sharing of common interest and experience, resulting in friendship, togetherness, a sense of belonging and community spirit.
