MINEHEAD INFORMATION CENTRE

In February 2025, the Directors of Minehead Information Centre Ltd. (MIC) announced that the information centre, previously located in The Beach Hotel, would not be reopening for the foreseeable future. Despite support from the YMCA and other organisations over the past decade, the centre faced unsustainable funding challenges. They continue to explore alternative solutions alongside partner organisations such as the Town Council to maintain information services for Minehead residents and visitors. The Minehead bay website continues to operate.
