Holly Lodge Community Centre
London, UK
The Holly Lodge Community Centre is a small registered charity run by volunteers, serving our local community.
Located on the site of a former dining pavilion on the historic Holly Lodge Estate in Highgate, London, we have two venues:
Holly Lodge Community Centre, situated at 30 Makepeace Avenue, and
Holly Lodge Nursery, located one street away in Oakeshott Avenue.
Holly Lodge Community Centre is a welcoming community hub in Highgate that offers a range of activities, events, and support for local residents. We provide opportunities for people to come together through social activities, fitness and wellbeing sessions... free creative classes, £4 lunch clubs, film club (free), and free advice services, helping people stay active, connected, and supported in their community. We also make our space available for classes, meetings, workshops, and other local events, so the centre can continue to be a friendly and useful place for community life.
We identify service users and their needs through regular engagement with local residents, direct feedback, and close links with community partners. As a community centre, we are in ongoing contact with people through our activities, events, and informal day-to-day conversations, which helps us understand the issues affecting them.
Surplus food donations would be distributed to local residents and community members who are facing financial hardship, food insecurity, or isolation. We would use the donations in a safe and organised way through the community centre, helping people access useful food items while reducing waste.
