Welcome to The Arc
INSPIRING. INCLUSIVE. INVITING.
The Arc, located in the gymnasium building of the historical former site of the Caterham Guard’s depot, is a charity set up to provide a much needed space.
Since reopening under trust management in 2010 we have grown into a thriving community hub becoming home to a huge variety of clubs and classes run by local businesses, which include Educational, Art, dance, fitness classes and so much more; these take place all throughout the week.
​
In addition to all these classes we are home to an art and drama club for vulnerable adults, hold coffee meetings for the elderly and a weekly special needs soft play session for children with learning difficulties.
​
All facilities are available for private hire, children's parties and celebrations as well as community events and fairs, with the added advantage of a large free car park and wheelchair facilities.
