About this cause

We are located in the centre of Fenton and we serve all ages within the community. We host School Holiday Clubs, Messy Church, Baby & Parent Exercise Groups, Rainbows, Brownies & Guides, Over 50s Exercise Class, a Community Cafe, Night Shelter for the Homeless, Card Craft Classes, 2 Community Choirs, Slimming Word, Alcoholics Anonymous, Cake Decorating Classes, Troupe Dancing, Indoor Bowls, Birthday Parties, and Foodbank. We provide volunteers for a number of the activities whilst we provide the venue for other activities. We are seeking to build upon our existing work by providing hot meals as part of our Community Cafe; providing greater support and activities for parents, particularly those with under 3s, and to combat social isolation.

How this cause brings people in the community together

We are seeking to increase the aspirations of local people as Fenton is an area that has suffered through the traditional industries closing. Families have become fragmented and we want to bring back that family feel to the Fenton community through our community activities, eating and chatting together. We also want to make space available for young parents to interact and support each other.
