Do you have an idea for a group?

Do you have an idea for a Community Group?

We can help you set it up!
If the members are 18-65 and in the areas of Southampton, New Forest, Eastleigh, Winchester or the Test Valley, we may be able to help.

The groups can be based around Art, but not necessarily!
They can involve social events, sports, music, drama, photography...whatever brings people together. Call us on 02380 915414 and speak to either Stuart or Becky.

Prospective Arts Group Planned for Mansbridge

We are hoping to set up an ongoing arts/crafts group for the Mansbridge area, with the support of Swaythling Housing and St Marys Church.
The group could involve Music, Art, Carnival Workshops, Drama, Photography, and even trips out, anything that helps bring people without costing a lot of money!


The first meeting of the new group will be at
St Mary’s Church Hall – Wessex lane, South Stoneham
On Friday 28th September at 10am.

There will be a presentation explaining the project and showing example ideas, followed by refreshments and a chance to chat

If you're feeling in a bit of a rut, this could be just what you need! You don't need to be particularly talented in any area; just a willingness to meet people and have fun is all that’s required!

Pilands Carnival Arts Group is Starting!

After a very successful meeting with the new core group at Pilands (Eastleigh), we are pleased to announce the first session, which will be on Wednesday 12th of September in the main hall at Pilands Wood Community Centre. 10-12

Come along, join in the fun, and be involved right from the start!
Our first project will be working towards the Pilands Christmas Carnival on Dec 6th.
The theme will be Christmas songs!

For more info, ask the Pilands team, info@pilandswoodcentre-eastleigh.co.uk or contact Stuart.

Scrapstore Challenge

We had a Scrapstore Challenge at New Milton Youth Club on Friday 17th August, building a full size person out of chicken wire and Mod Rock.

The 18+ project is now progressing, the next meeting being on the 23th of August 1-3. If you're interested in joining us call Stuart on 07766 096148 or email stuartjebbitt@hotmail.com

YMCA Tenant Reps group - 18-25s

'Float your boat'

In June, 25 out of the 40 residents at the YMCA in London Road, Bevois Town took part in a Boat Building project supported by Community Builders and lead by Colin Jones.

Celebration! - Colin is a talented chap who can pick up a guitar as well as a saw. So once the Catamaran was built, in August it was christened at a naming ceremony that doubled up as a barn dance (accompanied by Colin’s band) and proudly launched in a nearby lake the next day. All in all, a good laugh for everyone involved - and a great way to show the local community outside that when YMCA residents put their minds to something, the results are impressive!

Young Mums art group in Bargate Ward - 18-25s

Celebration! - Do you live in St Mary's or Bargate? Did your child decorate this ball at a local festival? See it displayed at the Central Housing Office and a photo display in St Mary's Surgery.

'St Mary's Coming Together' - a summer of festival fun

Covered in hands decorated by the children of St Mary's and Bargate Ward, this fabulous gold was a 3-part build that started at the K2 Knowledge Youth Festival on 7th July, was added to at St Mary's Community Festival on 14th July, and finished off at the final K2 Festival on 4th August.

Meanwhile the mums' hands were given a french manicure and invited to join our new young mums group that is due to launch in October. The group is still in the planning stages but the idea is possibly to have an arts group for adults that works towards large scale festival builds.

If this is something that would interest you, then get in touch so we can let you know about the first meeting.

Is there a group near me I can join?

Is there a group starting near me?

A number of groups are now in the early stages of forming
If you are interested in getting involved in any of these projects – GET IN TOUCH!
Or if you’re an existing group that needs a helping hand.
Maybe we can add value to your project.
