We are currently closed due to the recent flooding in Monmouth
Dear friends of Bridges Centre,
Following the flooding in Monmouth town centre in November 2025, our building remains temporarily closed to the public while restoration work continues. The flood waters caused significant damage across the entire ground floor, reaching desk height in many areas.
Since then, extensive surveys and assessments have been completed to determine the full scope of the damage and the repairs required. We are now moving into the next phase of the project and are awaiting the start of major restoration works by appointed contractors.
While much of the activity continues behind the scenes, significant progress has been made in planning the repairs needed to bring Drybridge House back into use. We are working closely with our insurers, surveyors, contractors and other partners to ensure the restoration is carried out to the highest possible standard.
Our goal remains to partially reopen parts of the building in Autumn 2026, with a full reopening planned for Spring 2027. We will continue to share updates as work progresses and would like to thank everyone for their ongoing patience, support and encouragement.
In the meantime, the charity’s work across the community continues. Our community shop is fully open, afternoon teas are still taking place, and our wellbeing services continue to run across Monmouthshire, supporting people in Monmouth, Chepstow, Abergavenny, Caldicot and surrounding communities.
We understand that the closure of the building is inconvenient for many people who regularly visit or use the centre, and we are grateful for your patience and support while we work through this recovery process.
Thank you for continuing to stand with us as we restore Bridges Centre and we look forward to welcoming everyone back through the doors in the months ahead. 💚
