The Barnes Institute Whitburn

Serving the Community since 1905

The Barnes Institute was gifted to the people of Whitburn in 1905 by Mrs Eleanor Pollard Barnes.

It has been in continuous use since then, providing premises for a wide variety of social, educational and creative activities, as well as health, wellbeing and fitness uses for the young, the old and everyone in between!

SEPTEMBER 2020

Due to Covid-19, The Barnes Institute was closed from mid-March until late July.

We have been re-opening gradually during the past two months and the building is COVID-secure for all group activities and use of the gym.

We have already welcomed back many of our regular groups and are happy to announce the arrival of several new group activities.

If you are interested in our current timetable, please phone Carol Shield on 07767 156 134, email info@thebarneswhitburn.org.uk, or call in for a brochure.

N.B. Unfortunately, there will be no Winter Festival a The Barnes Institute this year. We hope to be able to celebrate Christmas with smaller scale activities for all ages.

WATCH THIS SPACE!!!
