About WNRC

We are a community centre in the heart of the Winshill Ward of Burton Upon Trent.

Our aim is to provide a great facility that brings the whole community together through a wide range of interesting and fun group activities and events.

You will find a warm welcome from Kim Smith, our friendly Centre Manager, who is at the centre most days.

Kayleigh Tomlinson Secretary

Kayleigh Tomlinson - Secretary

I am a full time mum to 3 children. I have grown up in Winshill and I joined WNRC as I can relate to what is needed and wanted in our community. I like to know that I will be part of making Winshill a safe and happy place to live in as my children grow up.

How we'Re Run

We are a registered charity and we depend on grants and donations. Winshill Parish Council make us a regular grant every year, and other organisations and businesses help support specific projects. We make some income by renting out rooms in the Centre. We also welcome support from individuals: you can donate to us directly, do a fundraising event for us, or volunteer your time and skills.

We have a Board of Trustees who meet regularly to oversee things. This year the trustees are: 

  • Margaret Hewitt (Chair)
  • Clare Stewart (Treasurer)
  • Kayleigh Tomlinson (Secretary)
  • Sharon Taylor
  • Abi Lawrence
  • Kerry Mills
  • Sue Moore
  • Tracy Elson
  • Dawn Maddin
