St. Michael’s Community Hub, Sheerwater

St. Michael's Community Hub is a project that aims to transform the existing church building into a vibrant and welcoming centre for the community. It’s a response to the long term needs of local residents, and will also be a beacon of hope following the failure of the local council’s redevelopment plan.

The project is led by St. Michael's Shared Church, which has been serving the area for nearly 50 years, and will provide a new permanent home for Mascot, a charity that offers English lessons, CV writing, IT training, a Foodbank and other support for Sheerwater residents.

The project will refurbish and extend the current building, making it more accessible, spacious and comfortable for a variety of activities and groups. The Hub will host a range of services and events, such as a pop-up café for parents and children from the local primary school, cooking on a budget courses, holiday clubs, art and craft workshops and meals for the elderly. Counselling services and NHS child health have also expressed interest in using the new facilities. There will be a drop-in café with internet access, a 1-2-1 private meeting room, two separate meeting rooms and a refurbished main hall, as well as a quiet garden for relaxation. 

The Hub project aims to create a positive and inclusive environment in the heart of Sheerwater where people can meet, learn, socialise and grow together. We have applied to Your Fund Surrey for £1.2m towards the estimated £1.35m cost of this project and now need your help.
