Aim: A small charity with a big dream-to build a community hub in the heart of our gorgeous garden. We urgently need your help to make it happen!

We have exciting plans for a new building which will create a vital community hub at Martineau Gardens. It’ll provide a year-round warm welcome for our volunteers with additional support needs, children from schools across the city and the thousands of visitors we welcome free of charge every year.

The building will allow us to welcome thousands more people, providing a hub for our local community, offering vital indoor space for all-weather working, accessible indoor toilets and community space for groups and organisations to meet in beautiful surroundings.

We have already secured planning permission and have a design from APEC Architects which was informed by discussions with our staff, volunteers, visitors and other stakeholders including local schools. 

You can see the designs on our website martineau-gardens.org.uk/new-building, or why not pop in for a chat?

The whole project will cost around £1 million, and we’re starting with a crowdfunder to raise £50,000 to fund the next stages of the build


Please donate whatever you can: every pound will help. We are also offering some fantastic rewards for those who donate specific amounts. No matter how small the seeds, they will all go towards building our big dreams! 1749044615_whatsapp_image_2025-06-04_at_14.41.32.jpeg

"Increasingly the pressures of modern life, particularly in a large city, can make it difficult to find a sense of community and calm in a natural environment and Martineau Gardens does that with a great warmth. The new building will enable this sense of community in a wonderful green space to reach more people and give capacity to support people all year round." A quote from a supporter.
