About Us
We are a charity formed with the aspiration of acquiring and operating a community centre for the benefit of the people of Meads, Eastbourne
Our target venue is St. John's Parish Hall, which after nearly a hundred years of community service is in a poor state of repair. Coupled with the PCC of St. John's wish to dispose of the hall (announced at the end of 2022), we could both save this iconic community asset and provide Meads with a welcoming, inclusive, and up-to-date community centre, with similar purposes to those envisioned when built in the early 20th century.
The site was originally gifted to the community by the Duke of Devonshire in the 19th century, for use as a school. Since that school moved to larger premises, the original building was used as a Parish Room. The current hall, built in the early 20th Century, was for continuing that same function, within a larger footprint, after the original became dilapidated.
