Project Development
The Community Hub is being delivered in two phases.
Phase One – Grand Hall & Event Spaces
The first phase focuses on completing the Grand Hall and its adjacent venues, creating a fully operational space for cultural events, celebrations, conferences, exhibitions, and community gatherings.
This phase is currently under construction and is expected to open by Autumn 2026.
Phase Two – Community Café & Kitchen
The second phase will complete the ground floor and basement levels of the building.
This includes a Community Café on the ground floor and a modern community kitchen in the basement, together with volunteer facilities and supporting amenities.
These spaces will enable the Hub to expand its community programmes, including increasing our free meal distribution from around 40,000 meals per year to more than 80,000 meals annually.
Phase Two is expected to be completed by Autumn 2027, bringing the full vision of the Community Hub to life.
