Bearwood Community Hub’s mission is to consistently enable every child, young person and adult in Bearwood and surrounding areas to connect, collaborate and create in ways that are right and beneficial for them, and in ways that foster belonging, ownership and autonomy.
The associated Bakery supports newly-arrived women to gain new skills, connect to the local community and increase their confidence, well-being and self-esteem through baking bread together.
