The Open Door Centre |
||
|
A Charity independent of the Church yet connected in a very real way to the Church and it's beliefs. Situated at the corner of Sunnylands Avenue and Bridewell Drive in the Sunnylands Housing Estate in Carrickfergus the Centre opened in September 1997. It is a place where anyone can come for a meal, to meet friends, or have a chat in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. It is a point of contact for the people of the community where a lot of activities are also in operation. From pensioner's lunches, O.A.P. clubs, Dinners, Functions, Youth nights and Singles evenings, to Public Information nights, Alpha courses, Parent and Toddlers clubs there is something to be found in the centre for everyone in the community. The centre is staffed by volunteers many of whom have been on courses to enable them to be better equipped to work in the centre and meet the needs of the community. |
Each Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday the centre opens as a restaurant from 10:30 to 2:30 where reasonably priced meals are offered on a varied menu. We are also open on Saturdays from 10:30 to 1:30. Each Tuesday a free meal is provided for those of pensionable age. Please feel free to visit us during these times. We now have available a conference facility to outside groups. Whatever your needs for a small meeting or a larger gathering, tea, coffee, morning snacks and lunches can be provided. Our main hall holds up to 75 people and our additional room holds up to 25. For costs and further details please contact the centre. Further information on functions, children's birthday parties, and other activities are available by telephone.
