The Mary Hindle Centre hosts regular community classes including a youth club and Asian Ladies group. A Haslingden woman was wrongly accused of criminal activity during protests against the introduction of mechanical loomweavers in the later 1800's and was deported to Australia. The centre is named in her honour.
