The centre was setup in 2015 due to a high demand for places in other local centres. Each year it has grown and is now running awards for approximately 180 candidates each year.

In 2018 the centre relocated to Altrincham Kersal Rugby Club to provide more space for the growing number of people involved.

The centre is run entirely by volunteers. The key contact points are listed below. However, there are many more volunteers that are involved and support the centre. Unfortunately there is not enough room to list them all.

Please look at our Volunteering page for more information if you want to join the team or get in touch via the Contact Us form.
