A proud moment for Shrewsbury 👏

We’re delighted to see the Shrewsbury Ambassadors recognised with the Mayor of Shrewsbury Special Award for Tourism.

A special mention to our own volunteer Pete Oxley, who plays a part in making visitors feel welcome in our town.

It’s people like Pete and the Ambassadors who help make Shrewsbury such a friendly and supportive community.

Earth Day 2026 – Small Steps, Big Difference

Today is a great reminder that even simple actions can have a positive impact on our world.

At the Roy Fletcher Centre, we see every day how digital skills can help people:
• Reduce paper by going online
• Stay connected without travelling
• Access services more easily from home

💻 Learning to use technology isn’t just about convenience
It can also help us live more sustainably.

Whether it’s sending an email instead of a letter, or joining a video call instead of making a journey, it all adds up.

How it started vs. How it's going.

It’s hard to believe that 30 years ago, this raw industrial space was transformed into the vibrant community hub it is today.

Three decades later, the mission remains the same. We are still here, empowering adults in our community with essential Digital Skills in a space that has stood the test of time.

From empty echoes to the sound of learning. Here’s to the next 30 years!
