Welcome to Glamis Hall!
Who Are We?
We are a group of friends who came together in 2014 to save Glamis Hall and its services from closure. We became a registered charity (No. 1160317) in early 2015 to help us provide services at Glamis Hall for the community.
What is Glamis Hall?
Glamis Hall is a community centre on the Queensway Estate in Wellingborough, Northamptonshire. It consists of a Day Centre for the over 50s, a large hall with a kitchen and servery, and community (meeting) rooms.
Our Mission
Providing a Community Centre for the residents of the town of Wellingborough and its surrounding villages.
What do we do?
Day Centre (VIP Club)
The VIP Club is open Monday to Friday (9:30am - 3pm). Join us for the day and enjoy a nutritious 3 course meal. There are activities available throughout the day if you wish to participate. We can provide transport to and from the centre or help you sign up to the Wellibus (via Shire Community Services) for free transport if you are eligible. We offer assisted bathing for those who cannot bath or shower at home on their own. We also have a hairdresser and a visiting beautician and podiatrist. If you are thinking of joining the VIP Club please call our Care Manager on 01933 677326, option 1 to discuss availability.
Youth & Sports Clubs
We run our own Youth club. We also host lots of clubs and groups at our centre. Check our events calendar to see what is on when.
Room Hire
We hire our rooms by the hour. We are also able to offer the rooms at the Kingsway Centre for hire. Use our Contact Us page or call 01933 677326 to check pricing and availability. Please contact us in plenty of time as we get booked up very quickly.
Equality and diversity statement
Diversity
Glamis Hall for All (GHfA)’s mission is based on a fundamental belief in the value of diversity in our community and the importance of ensuring equality of opportunity in all areas of our work. We recognise that people with diverse cultures and perspectives bring fresh ideas and perceptions that benefit our organisation and all its stakeholders.
We are committed to developing and maintaining an organisation in which differing ideas, abilities, backgrounds and needs are fostered and valued, and where those with diverse experiences can participate and contribute. We recognise that this will enhance our effectiveness in carrying out our work.
Equal opportunity
GHfA opposes all forms of discrimination (intentional, unintentional and institutional). We believe that all individuals must be treated fairly, with dignity and respect. We are firmly committed to promoting equality of opportunity. We seek to ensure that our services are relevant and accessible to all who wish to use them. We will promote the need for our staff to take actions against any discrimination which comes to their attention.
We will not discriminate against job applicants, staff members, volunteers, individuals (or organisations to which we provide services) on the grounds of:
- race, colour, nationality, ethnic or national origin
- sex, gender, marital status and caring responsibilities
- sexuality
- age
- physical or mental disability or mental health status
- HIV status/AIDS diagnosis
- religion/faith
- social origin or class
- employment status
- unrelated criminal conviction
We are committed to ensuring equality of opportunity in the recruitment, working environment, training/development and conditions of employment of our staff. We will act against harassment and offer support to victims of such harassment.
