Community Hub

Here to support families and the wider community.

Welcome to our Community Hub. Our community hub consists of a dedicated community building, sports hall and changing facilities, kitchen, classroom, pantry and cafe space. It also has an allotment area. Although the space is part of Marlborough Road Academy, it aims to serve both the school and wider community and to reach people of all ages.We know that communities are strongest together and this forms a central part of our hub ethos. We are committed to building positive relationships with the community the hub serves and to enabling community members to act on things that they care about.  Our aims are to:
  • Help our local community lead healthier, happier and better-connected lives.
  • Reduce isolation among our parents/carers and the wider community.
  • Offer a safe and supportive environment, in which local residents can thrive.
  • Promote change driven by both the school and the  community.
  • Provide  opportunities  for community members to get involved, participate, volunteer, learn and to develop their skills and talents.
  • to improve social community cohesion.
The Marlborough Road Academy Community Hub is run by our Community Development Officer: Judith Richens who can be contacted on the following e mail address: communityhub@marlboroughroad.org
 

Have your Say

Community voice is very important to us.  We regularly sample the views and opinions of the community to be sure that we focus on the things that matter to you.  Look out for the monthly community newsletter and follow the school on social media to see what we are currently working on, events that are coming up or things you can get involved in.
 

Sad news

The pantry space has suffered a small fire and so the building is temporarily out of use.  The repairs are on going and we hope to re open in May/June.
 
We have been able to relocate some of our community activities and are holding a weekly pop up stall in place of the pantry on Mondays. We regret that we are not able to offer the facility for hire at the moment or to run the range of activities we had planned. However, we are determined to have our full programme in operation as soon as possible.
