Officially opened in January 2015, the brand new 1st Clives Own Welshpool Scout Headquarters and Community Centre (1st COWSHACC) is a modern, spacious and eco-friendly building with a large main hall, two smaller rooms ideal for formal or informal meetings plus a variety of other uses, a fully fitted catering kitchen, free WiFi and lots of parking, it's a cut above most other centres.

Its owned by the Scout Group who have strived for many years to obtain funding for such a centre and was first talked about in 2008. With a small team of paid staff, the Centre, since its creation, is looking to be managed and staffed by local people, for local people. It is a Community Centre in the true sense of the word. People of all ages, abilities and from all walks of life can play an active role within the Centre. Any Volunteers involvement will promote personal development, self-esteem and self-confidence.

Its already home to a diverse range of clubs, groups and committees and is also available for private hire. An ideal venue for wedding receptions, family celebrations, childrens parties, exhibitions, dances, indoor sports, conferences, training events and much more.
The primary aims of the Association are to:

Help improve the quality of life of the people and serve the community of Welshpool and surrounding areas today and in the future.

Provide services and resources that will support the area and individuals.

Develop a community spirit and responsibility by encouraging local people to participate in the management and day to day running of the Centre.

Identify the needs of the area and devise ways in which the Association can respond to those needs.
