Bridge Life Centre

As we come to the end of the Autumn term we continue to see our communities transformed, one person at a time through the Life Centre.

A huge thank you to everyone that supported our Christmas Markets Fundraiser. The event was incredibly well attended and raised over £1,000 for the Life Centre. We had Rise Dance, our community choir and Hannah Green performing as well as 40 stalls and our Kids Zone all helping people get ready for Christmas.

In recent months we have also had 3 successful grant applications totalling £33,100, this going towards the work and development of the Life Centre. The building work is progressing all the time, as we work towards completing the exterior of the building next year.

It has been an exciting month in the Bridge Life Centre with the delivery of our Slush Machine and the next stage of building work commencing.

One of our young people, aged 9, decided it would be amazing to have our very own slush machine in the Bridge Life Centre and set about to raise the money for this themselves. After raising £481 by making and selling keyrings, they then contacted some slush companies with his desire to get a machine. Thanks to Polar Krush we now have our machine up and running with Blueberry & Raspberry and Cola flavours available. Already they are a big hit being sold at Bridge Youth and the England matches.

Building work has begun this week on our mezzanine floor. This work is creating some of our new offices that will free up both the house for us to sell and extra breakout/meeting spaces for our various activities and ministries.

As we approach the end of our summer term we continue to reach around 300 people each week through the Bridge Life Centre seeing people in desperate need being supported and helped in various ways.

We are screening all the England games in the Bridge Life Centre. We have slush drinks from our brand new machine, hot dogs and other snacks available to buy with all profits going towards the Life Centre. Next match is Thursday with doors opening at 4:30pm.

We have had a great few weeks in the Life Centre. We've had lots of new families engaging with our Tots group and Kids Club, having lots of fun learning about Easter and Jesus resurrection.

In March alone we responded to 64 referrals through Baby Basics. All of these are new mums in need, experiencing the love of God through the practical provision of Moses baskets and various baby essentials.

We have now decided to proceed with putting the house up for sale to help finance the building work on the Life Centre, so now have a plan in place to rehouse all ministries that the house is used for in the coming months. The first part of this process is to create some office spaces on the new mezzanine floor, enabling us to put the house up for sale.

We have had an amazing term in the Bridge Life Centre. We have had a new 'Mama and Baba Pilates' group starting as well as lots of new children being helped and supported through our existing sessions. We continue to impact over 300 people on a weekly basis through the centre. The next stage of building work will be beginning very shortly which will create a new Cafe, lounge and breakout room, allowing us to increase the provision we can offer in much needed ways.

On Saturday we had our 12 Hour Sponsored Dodgeball Fundraiser and raised over £2,000!

Huge thanks to all that were involved and donated towards the work of the Bridge Life Centre.

Our Baby and Toddler group is a great way for parents and carers to connect with others and for the little ones to play and learn. It's amazing to see so many enjoying themselves in the Life Centre.
