The Shildon Centre first opened as a community resource on 1^st April 1985 at the Old Police Station, 20 Main Street, Shildon. It was designed to provide a central resource for the community of Shildon. It is a two-storey building with a front entrance, reception office, a meeting room and a café/kitchen area downstairs. Upstairs there are offices, a large meeting room and a smaller meeting room. To the rear of the building there are former police cells that have been adapted to a self contained youth facility. Throughout the building there is storage space for resources that are used by the community including tables, chairs, kitchen equipment and games equipment.

The Centre was to close last May 2007, when the then management committee decided to fold, however a new management committee came forward to rescue the centre.
