Social centres

About our Social Centres

Guildford Borough Council operates two social centres for people aged 55 or over who live within the borough.

• Park Barn Social Centre
• Shawfield Social Centre

The centres offer an opportunity for you to meet friends, socialise in a welcoming environment and to take advantage of the services offered. Each centre has a coffee shop providing light refreshments and a dining area which provides hot and cold lunches at reasonable prices. The majority of dietary requirements can be met. You don't need to stay all day, it's your choice whether you just want to pop in for a coffee or spend the whole day.

The main facilities offered include:

• chiropody
• hairdressing
• a programme of leisure and recreational activities
• adult education
