welcome to CREATE

CREATE Environment Centre CREATE is a vibrant environment centre which hosts a range of events and exhibitions and also features a purpose-built Ecohome. It offers excellent conference facilities, meeting rooms and gallery space, which can be hired out at reasonable rates. CREATE is also home to several organisations working in the field of sustainable development, and the 4th floor is home to Lifeskills - learning for living.

Office space is availble to rent at CREATE >find out more

Entrance to CREATE is free.

Visitors are welcome to visit the ground floor exhibitions, gallery and cafe, and the Ecohome. Special arrangements need to be made for school and group visits.

Volunteering opportunities are sometimes available at CREATE: see organisations based at CREATE to find out more about who’s here and what they do, and for contact details; see volunteering at the Ecohome to find out how to join the Ecohome team.

CREATE's location next to the river and the floating harbour also make it a great starting point for various short walks.
