What We Do
Discover the services and support we offer to the Braintree community.
The Braintree Community Hub
Our new Braintree Community Hub offers a warm space, where you can come in and sit for a while and grab a hot drink (our teas and coffees start at just £1.00!). A great place to meet new people but also you can just sit and watch the world go by.
While you are with us, you can enjoy a free bowl of soup with a roll. We also host other community events throughout the week.
Our Services & Activities

Community Supermarket
