A Welsh arts centre needs £800,000 in renovations to save it from closure, Gwynedd Council has heard.

Council officers have recommended refurbishment, saying Neaudd Dwyfor's closure would cost nearly £400,000 and "lead to the loss of an important facility locally".

"Closing would detrimentally affect the town of Pwllheli and the area in terms of the economy and regeneration, and from an arts, cultural and linguistic viewpoint, " a council report said.

The centre needs to increase its earnings following compaints from the public about the quality of the premises and its programming.
