From the warm and helpful welcome at reception, to whatever you're involved in (but especially engAGE and its events, etc), this is a real treasure of a place, well used and enjoyed by many.

After a shaky start (we'd booked elsewhere) we found this place. Kerry was simply brilliant, she listened to what we wanted and offered sound advice. She was never too busy and always on hand when needed. She made the whole process seem so easy. As for the venue, it was beautiful. We had the most amazing night and the staff worked so hard throughout. Would most defnitely recommend.

I would highly recommend Linskill centre for booking your next meeting room space, or hosting an event. I've booked multiple business meetings at Linskill Centre, and both clients and staff have been more than impressed with the amount of meeting room options, the space available, the facilities, the food and drink, attentive reception staff and rates. Very local, very convenient, very cost effective. Highly recommended.

Linkill is a hidden gem in North Shields and more people should know about it! Not just a community centre, it has something for everyone, classes for a variety of things for all ages, rentable rooms for businesses, halls and beautiful gardens to rent as a venue for weddings and functions, with a bar. It has a cafe serving very nice hot and cold food. There are also Nurseries for little ones. Its surprising how versatile this place is and the staff are lovely, very accommodating and helpful. If you fancy getting out of the house to do something different or even just for a coffee give this place a look. FYI, If you're a small business looking for affordable premises to rent they also have other sites in North Tyneside as well as their main site 🤙

A wedding venue, arts, dance and fitness classes, nursery, cafe, and so many wonderful community programmes. Definitely worth a visit!

The Cafe is a great space to catch up with friends, colleagues or have a business meeting. The drinks and food are very reasonably priced and it is a lovely atmosphere. Also a great space to hire out for coffee mornings, baby showers and events! There are also several rooms to hire at a very reasonable cost and spaces to suit all. These have been refurbished and are very clean, airy and modern. I would highly recommend!

For me, Linskill is a special place. I have watched it grow from a rundown Community Centre into a modern up to date Community Centre. The present team have brought it back to life and have launched a vibrant variety of classes and events for the community. Keep up the good work.

We recently hired the hall at Linskill Centre in North Sheilds for our daughters christening party. Staff were very good on the day, easy to book. We wanted somewhere that was easy to get to with free parking and that was all on one level for accessiblity purposes. Pricing is extremelty competitive and with a cafe on site too, this also swayed our decision. Recommended for sure!

I've attended Linskill for a variety of things. The biggest being my wedding reception as we came out of lockdown restrictions in April 2021 where they turned everything around in a matter of days and gave us a magical day to remember despite the ongoing rules in place at the time (including table service for our drinks as was required at the time). I then started to attend Baby Social when my little one was just a few weeks old which allowed me to have a warm cuppa and meet other mums, to other activities as she got older such as Giggle and Groove and the baby sensory room which are brilliant. Most recently we hosted our daughter's birthday party here in the small hall where we brought in Bloom to do a class with her friends then we all enjoyed food (including a teddy bears picnic for the children) catered by the Cafe. There's plenty of parking, good facilities, and the staff are friendly and I'm sure we will continue to host more events here as the years go by!

The Linskill Centre is a thriving community hub, serving the local community by housing local businesses and charities, plus a nursery and cafe, and offering rooms for hire to local groups and individuals, all at competitive rates and second to none following some recent refurbishments. The Centre also offers a wide range of classes and activities for all age groups. It has developed into an excellent resource for the North Tyneside community!
