We are universally open to all members of the local community. There is no requirement to provide letters, vouchers or referrals. Please just come along and take what you need.

Also, we’re looking to further embed the Fridge into the local community by recruiting volunteers to support with collecting donations and managing the fridge. Anyone over the age of 16 can apply for the role and training, including food safety, will be provided.

The Pathways Centre works alongside local groups and organisations as well as running our own groups to offer support to those in the community around us. We opened our doors in 2008 and our aim continues to be to identify, understand and meet the changing and diverse needs of our local community. We run groups for all sections and age groups ranging from Messy Church, Boys' Brigade and Girls' Brigade for the youth to groups for the more mature. We provide support for those living with dementia in our Singing Café, Expressive Moments and Take-A-Break groups. We provide space and support for those dealing with problems with their mental health and those who may be lonely in the Crisis Cafe, Friendship Cafe, Steps2Hope and Cornerstone groups. Those needing help with computers and tablets or searching for family history can come to our Computer Club or pop in to Age UK IT support. Our Community café is open to everyone on Thursdays during term-time and offers a menu of sandwiches, paninis, jackets and daily specials in a friendly environment all at very reasonable prices. Turning Point, Age UK, Hinckley Area Food Bank, WEA, Love to Move (British Gymnastics Foundation), Princes Trust and The Drama Academy are amongst those who partner with us to provide the variety of groups on offer. Life is a journey and holds many ups and downs.....we wish to support our community as they journey through. If we can help you do please get in touch. Our opening times are Mondays 9am-1pm, Tuedays 9am-4pm, Wednesdays 9am-3pm, Thursdays 9am-3pm, Fridays 9am-1pm. Contact details are as follows; 01455 890026 ext.2 pathways@hinckleybaptist.com We are always looking for volunteers to help support the various groups on offer and new groups to join our family. So if you would like to volunteer, have a group looking for a new home or an idea for a new group that you think could serve our community, we'd love to hear from you.
