Welcome!

We’re exploring the idea of creating a new community space at the former Joseph Gibbons Centre, just off Lark Lane — a place where people can connect, share, learn, and feel supported.

But for it to truly reflect the community, we need your voice.

If we could sit with you right now, we’d tell you just how much passion and care is going into this idea. Each person involved brings their own story, skills, and hopes — but what connects us all is a shared drive to make life better for others.

We know some brilliant things already happen nearby — like at the Old Police Station — and this project isn’t about duplicating. It’s about building on what’s working and filling the gaps with something bold, welcoming, and community-led.

Whether your ideas are big, small, playful or practical — they all matter.

Want to hire the kitchen for your food start-up?

Host a cardboard fort movie night?

Run a community mini-golf build-off?

Let’s hear it.

Right now, anything is possible — and your voice matters more than you might think.

Thank you for being part of this from the beginning. ❤️

We know this consultation hasn't yet captured all the voices in our community particularly from global majority backgrounds and we're committed to changing that together.

We really do want to give you a chance to share your hopes and dreams.
