Swindon Hub is our warm and friendly, open and accessible community centre.
By the community, for the community - we welcome everyone, and have a buzzing programme of social activities, support groups, events as well as plenty of space to just chill.
The Hub has been going for over three years - up until recently, it's been 100% volunteers, but last year we were lucky enough to get Lottery funding for staff to help keep the place going and support our visitors and volunteers.
Our wonderful upstairs space hosts all sorts of bigger events - as well as activities that need to be away from the hustle and bustle of the cafe and drop-ins downstairs.
But the lift keeps breaking down. In the first two years we spent over £12,000 in fixes and repairs, and the decision was made that we can't afford to keep on doing that. So ...a Crowdfunder, to help us 1. Get the lift back open and 2. Build up a pot of money for future breakages and repairs.
Striving to be open and accessible to all, having a lift that is out of action is a real problem for us. Please help by contributing if you can, and sharing the link far and wide across your social media. Thank you, so much.
PS We didn't mention - the toilets are upstairs too.
