Morlan’s Aims

 

What is Morlan?

 

♦   From the old to the new – renovating an old building in Aberystwyth town centre into a modern, multi-purpose centre with a large hall and function rooms for hire together with parking facilities.

 

♦   From the present to the future – opportunities to develop creative talents, to consider and discuss moral, social and international issues and to share our understanding of our faith by listening and learning from others.

 

♦   From the few to everyone – a community centre where all are welcome, whatever their age, faith or background.

 

The centre is owned by Capel y Morfa, the local Welsh Presbyterian Church. The Chapel’s trustees consider establishing and supporting the centre as part of their mission and evidence to the world.
