At STBBC we believe in the power of community — become part of something meaningful by joining our Friends Scheme. Whether you’re a local resident, a building user, or someone who simply wants to make a difference, this is your opportunity to support the work we do in the local community.

We provide a place where everyone can feel welcome, valued and know they are loved. Each year our impact includes:

  • 500+ people receiving support, advice and care through our Parish Nursing activities

  • 2000+ adults and 1500+ children receiving food and support from the Foodbank run from our building

  • 60+ children and young people attending weekly clubs for fun and friendship

  • 6 local schools, preschools and care homes receiving free or subsidised use of our building and support from our staff

  • 50+ seniors benefitting from weekly company and entertainment, and an annual Holiday at Home to make memories

  • 70+ adults and young people receiving mental health support - through weekly calm spaces, workshops and therapy sessions

We’d love for you to join our group of Friends who give regularly and help us fund vital projects, maintain our welcoming space, and reach out with love and practical support to those who need it most.
