Stromness Community Centre

The Stromness Community Centre is a welcoming community facility in the heart of Stromness, offering flexible spaces for activities, meetings, events and community gatherings.

From March 2026, the centre is managed by Stromness Community Development Trust, following the transfer of the building from Orkney Islands Council into community management.

The Trust is working with centre users and the wider community to support existing activities while exploring opportunities to develop the building and its services for the future.
