A space for Forest Hill, open seven days a week.
Our hall is in use every day of the week by people from across the local community. Uniformed groups, dance and drama classes, toddlers, wellbeing sessions, coffee mornings, parties and celebrations — children and adults of all ages, many with no connection to the church at all.
It is an affordable and welcoming space seating up to 80 people, which makes it right for small and medium gatherings: regular weekly classes, one-off celebrations, community meetings and children’s parties.
Free for community groups and non-profits. Local community groups and non-profit charities use the hall at no charge. In a borough where affordable meeting space is scarce, this is one of the most practical things our parish gives to Forest Hill — and it is given to anyone who needs it, whatever their faith or none.
