SPARK Community Space

SPARK Community Space Southsea/Portsmouth based charity
Registered Charity Number: 1191751
The Pompey Centre - PO4 8SL

Spark Community Space is a local charity, working to reach those who have been left out or left behind, to give people a place to belong, to be part of a community of support, to heal together and to spark back into life. We want to welcome anyone who feels that they have been pushed aside or overlooked by society, perhaps because of long term illness, or redundancy; perhaps because of lack of ski

lls, or qualifications; perhaps because of disability, or race; or whatever reason. Spark is a place to belong; a place of welcome and friendship; a place for healing and rebuilding; somewhere for people to rediscover their value and self worth and to spark themselves back into life. We plan to open a community shop where people can come and grow together, gaining skills through volunteering, accessing training in a supportive atmosphere and progressing towards regaining a sense of belonging in society.

We take donations!

We love receiving your donations and we couldn't be more grateful to every single person who has donated to us.

We process donations on Monday and Saturdays to make it more manageable for the team, if possible it would be amazing if donations could be dropped off on these days, but we understand this may not be possible for some.

Have a wonderful day!

This Saturday! Spark 50p Sale, come and grab a bargain!

A little look back at some of the lovely thank you pictures created by our community for our amazing volunteers during Volunteers Week ❀️🌟

At Spark Community Space, we are proud to support people from all different backgrounds and experiences. For some, volunteering is about giving back to the community. For others, it’s about building confidence, improving communication and English skills, meeting new people, gaining experience, or taking those first positive steps into a new routine.

Our volunteers bring kindness, support, laughter and so much heart into Spark every single day, and we truly couldn’t do what we do without them.

Thank you to every volunteer, supporter and member of our community for being part of Spark 🀩
