Formerly the Owton Manor Community Centre and Library, Community Hub South, in Wynyard Road, Hartlepool, is celebrating its 60th anniversary from Monday, October 23, to Friday, October 27.
The hub is marking the occasion by hosting a number of activities including a 60’s themed quiz, afternoon tea, social dancing and a free three-course meal, including birthday cake.
