THE SCHEDULED closure of Hubberston and Hakin Community Centre has been put on hold until July.
At the request of county councillors Viv (Hubberston) and Mike (Hakin) Stoddart, the centre’s owners Pembrokehsire County Council have agreed to continue to fund and manage the centre until the end of the summer term.
The centre’s doors were planned to be shut in April.
Viv Stoddart told the Herald: “Mike and I are grateful that the council have agreed to give the community more time to explore funding opportunities which will enable the much-loved centre to stay open, both in the short and long term.
“We thank all those people who attended December’s successful drop in sessions, and the volunteers who hand delivered the invitations to the consultation, kindly facilitated by the county council.
“The positive response from the community is evidence of am enthusiasm to keep the iconic building open for everyone to use.”
