CARDIGAN’S New Life Church has unveiled ambitious plans for a new family entertainment centre.

The Loft Family Entertainment Centre – which will include a climbing wall, nine-hole crazy golf course, indoor curling, challenge/escape rooms, racing cars and an interactive area for young children – is due to be officially opened at 4pm on April 1.

“The idea for The Loft came when we took on the new building and realised how much space we had," Pastor Janice Bell told the Tivy-Side.

“As a church we have always looked at how we can be a benefit to the community.

“We have a foodbank which is a tremendous help as well as offering prayer for healing each week.

“The church meets every Sunday morning and has small groups that meet throughout the week.

“Alongside all that we are doing, we wanted to be able to offer work or volunteer opportunities.

“This is when we had the idea about the Family Entertainment Centre which would not only create employment, but would be a place where family and friends can get together and either relax in our new reception area and enjoy some light refreshments or use the entertainment centre to challenge themselves through the various activities we offer.

“Although there is a charge for the activities, we are trying to keep the costs as low as possible to make it accessible for everyone.”
