Welcome to the website of the Market Drayton Community Enterprise.

Market Drayton Community Enterprise aims to be inclusive and promote all organisations in the Market Drayton area. We have created the website to offer a virtual one stop shop for the community. Please free feel to share details of your organisation, your contact details, meeting dates and planned events, which we will add to the website.

Forward your information to; marketdraytoncommunityenterprise@yahoo.com

We are a registered charity which aims to benefit the community through a range of activities and events. It is small and flexible so that many community focused initiatives can find a home under its umbrella and benefit from charitable status.

We aim to provide facilities, activities and opportunities to help persons of all ages to lead fulfilled, healthy and active lives by tackling the causes of loneliness, lowliness, rural and urban social isolation.

 It is the intention to reduce demand on medical services and contribute to a greater sense of community and wellbeing.
