Situated in the Ancient Capital of Cornwall which has an amazing castle, The Orchard Centre is an ideal venue for all occasions. We are home to a number of community organisations and local businesses
Our facilities provide comfortable office spaces as well as rooms for conferences, training seminars or community organisations such as youth groups. We have a good sized screen TV that can be used for conference or training events.
The building is managed by a group of volunteer trustees' on behalf of the charitable organisation known as 'The Launceston Youth Partnership' (reg charity no. 1086738).
What businesses make up The Orchard Business Community?
How do we support our local population?
The Launceston Youth Partnership Ltd is a charity set up to provide security for youth groups using its premises, and to support the local youth population and wider community. Please see History under the More tab for information.
The new Trustees' came on board on 1st September 2018 with an aim of securing the future of the Charity and decided the building should be a happy, peaceful place to work and play. It needed a lot of investment and significant upgrading, but we feel it has been achieved.......
