Welcome to The Gateway Hub
We can help with a safe space
About Us & Our Services
Since 2020, we have flourished into a vital community hub, serving as a beacon of hope, support, and connection for individuals and families from all walks of life. Our commitment extends beyond just providing assistance; we create a welcoming and inclusive space where everyone can access essential resources and find a sense of belonging.
We offer a wide array of services, including a subsidised grocery store, a well-stocked food bank that also provides home delivery for vulnerable neighbours, and an accessible clothing and school uniform initiative. In addition to meeting basic needs, we run regular drop-in support sessions, workshops, and interactive coffee mornings where people can come together, share experiences, and build meaningful connections.
For children and young people, we organise engaging play sessions that foster social development and creativity. Recognising the importance of mental health, we provide structured support to help individuals navigate life’s challenges. Our community allotment gives people the opportunity to connect with nature, learn new skills, and contribute to a sustainable food source.
At the heart of our space is 'My Space'—a peaceful, inviting environment where individuals can take a moment to breathe, reflect, and find calm amidst the often overwhelming demands of daily life. Through each of these initiatives, we remain steadfast in our mission to nurture a supportive, judgment-free community where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
