How this cause brings people in the community together

Our community survey shows a lack of social space and car parking in the area. This project provides a multi-functional church space for use by whole community, separate hall with facilities to meet the needs of existing and future users, a cafe as a unique local meeting place for all age groups, grassed open space for community recreation, picnic and garden areas, and a free community car park.
