Nestled between Glastonbury and Street in Somerset, the Red Brick Building Centre is a beacon of community spirit. Born from the ashes of the old Morlands Factory, this social enterprise has transformed two of three derelict buildings into a thriving hub for the arts, music, and events.
With nearly £1 million raised, the centre offers a vibrant weekly programme, featuring everything from arts events and music gigs to exercise classes and support groups. It's also home to a sustainable restaurant, a buzzing local FM radio station, and a popular youth club.
Versatile rooms are up for hire, perfect for conferences, meetings, workshops, or even weddings. Affordable office spaces, hot desks, and artisan units are also available, supporting a dynamic mix of local businesses.
Every penny from bookings fuels the project's running costs, with profits reinvested into the community. The ongoing renovation of the third building, thanks to the Glastonbury Town Deal, promises even more space for community activities.
Also under their wing is Bridie’s Farm, the site of the Glastonbury Food and Regenerative Farming Centre, pushing the boundaries of sustainable agriculture.
