Community Build Hub – Find out a little more about our local initiative ⤵️

Community Build Hub was created to support our local community by giving practical help where it’s needed most. This is a new initiative, growing step by step, with limited resources — but with a strong commitment to fairness, transparency, and genuine community benefit.

Our goal is to run monthly or bi-monthly Community Build Hub events, where the public is welcome to visit, browse materials, and access free donated home improvement supplies. These events depend entirely on donations and available stock, so while we aim to run them regularly, they won’t always be possible.

We are currently awaiting charity status, which means the initiative is, for now, fully funded by individuals and supported by donated materials, time, and goodwill from the community.

As we begin the year, our immediate mission is to complete works on our building, creating a dedicated base where the public can attend Hub event days, browse materials indoors, and connect with what we’re building together.

Beyond materials, we also aim to support community build projects, helping turn good ideas into real, tangible improvements for people and places that need it. We’re keen to hear from community groups, shared spaces, and schools about any projects that could benefit from building or construction support. If you have a project in mind, we’d love to start the conversation 💬

Follow Community Build Hub here on Facebook to stay up to date with announcements, upcoming Hub event days, and ways to get involved.

You can be reassured that when our next Community Build Hub event is planned, we’ll share the details with plenty of notice, so everyone has time to prepare and get involved.

Together, we build stronger communities.

Thank You for an Incredible Launch Day! 🎉

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for the official opening of the Community Build Hub — Stevenage’s new initiative dedicated to collecting surplus building materials and making them accessible to the local community. Your support has helped turn this idea into a reality, and we couldn’t be more grateful.

🎶 Special thanks to the wonderful children of Moss Bury Primary School who kicked things off beautifully with festive carols and brought so much joy to the launch.

We were honoured to welcome The Mayor of Stevenage, Nazim Chowdhury and former Mayor & Councillor Jim Brown, whose presence and words of encouragement truly lifted the event.

🙏 A heartfelt thank you to some of our amazing beneficiaries for attending and showing their support — including Foodshed, Hertfordshire Fire & Rescue Service, and members of our local community who have been with us from the very beginning during our warm-up events.

💛 Massive gratitude to Pat at Any Kitchen for the generous donation of units, sinks, taps, cabinets, and more — along with many other local suppliers who contributed surplus materials that we’ve proudly saved from going to waste. Your donations directly empower community projects and individuals in need.

✨ What’s Next?
We’re excited to announce:
A growing partnership with People For People - Stevenage
A brand-new website where you’ll soon be able to browse upcoming events
A simple way to request support for individual needs or community space projects
🎬 And finally, thank you to Chris at Artystar for creating a fantastic short film capturing the atmosphere of the day — from the ribbon-cutting to the celebrations — starring the brilliant children of Moss Bury Primary School.

Here’s to building stronger communities, together. 🧱💙
