NCYC is the Neston based charity that delivers and supports services for local people. Our mission is that everyone in our community is able to live health, fulfilled and connected lives.
We also operate Neston Community Youth Centre and Neston Civic Hall
There has been a community owned building on the site of Burton Road since 1964. Originally a Youth Centre, providing activities for children and young people, the old building eventually fell into disrepair and was demolished in 2004. Local community leaders worked with Ellesmere Port and Neston Borough Council to redevelop the site into a multi use community facility that could be used all day, every day.
The building has been open since January 2007 when the new charity was formed. Since then the offer within this building has developed to include the provision of a Job Centre, Children's Centre, Foodbank, Citizens Advice access point and the charity has developed alongside it. The charity delivers a range of services including a befriending service, social prescribing service, community cinema and supports many of the much loved community events including Neston Ladies Club Day, Neston Village Fair, The Big Lunch, Neston Earth Festival and Christmas Lights Switch on and Lantern Parade.
In January 2022, the charity signed a lease with Cheshire West and Chester Council to take over the operation of Neston Civic Hall, the home of Neston Flicks, bringing a much loved community asset back to life having been closed for almost two years.
We have secured funding to carry out a full reroofing and would like to fit integrated solar panels whilst this work is carried out.
