After delays caused by the global pandemic the extension to East Durham Trust's base at Community House was completed in August 2020. A bespoke space designed for Arts and Cultural activity the Arts Cafe @ Community House will provide a place for performances, sessions and activity. Unfortunately due to the ongoing Covid-19 restrictions the Arts Cafe isn't able to invite lots of local people in as we'd hoped but there are lots of plans for the future!

​The Arts Cafe @ Community House was made possible thanks to funding from the Clothworkers Foundation, East Durham Area Action Partnership, various local Councillors and Durham County Council as well as a crowdfunding campaign where you helped make it happen.
