Sarah McCaffrey and Rebecca Webb and have been appointed as the new joint centre managers at the Kenilworth Centre.

It was revealed in April that previous manager Holly Hewitt would be leaving to start a new job in Coventry.

And the centre's trustees have today announced the new appointments following a recruitment process in May.

The pair are already part of community projects in the town, with Sarah working on Kenilworth Arts Festival and Becky a member of Compassionate Kenilworth.

Sarah and Becky, who will start in July, said they were "really excited to start working together" and plan to "develop opportunities for community connection" in Kenilworth.

"We want to thank Holly and the trustees for paving the way," they said.

Cllr Richard Dickson, chair of trustees added: "We received many quality applications for the role and thanks to everyone who applied.

"We're delighted Sarah and Becky will be joining us in early July, their vision supports the goals of the trustees to be a central space and support system for our community.
