The Vale Family Hub started as the Vale Pantry back in 2020. Working with the most disadvantaged families, providing a wide range of affordable food was simply where work started. Our real mission has always been to uncover the underlying issues behind food poverty and work to heal each household find the right help and support and get them to a better place in life. In 2023, we took the bold decision to expand, find larger premises, and operate a Family Hub in order to provide a wider range of hands-on services. In March 2025, our Vale Family Hub opened. It encompasses our Pantry, but also offers soft play, a Cafe, and the space to sit down with families and really help in so many ways. We now offer over 30 activities and sources of help from Debt & Welfare, Early Help, Parenting Support, Toddler Play Activities, SEND Support, Domestic Abuse Support, Substance Misuse, Budgeting, Cookery Education and so much more. The Hub is a happy thriving, warm and welcoming space where people come together, problems can be solved, help is always at hand. Open 6 days a week.

We at the community centre run a successful community pantry, Westfield community pantry. We also run a food hub which includes free meals for the community 4 days per week. We also have several groups including toddlers, youth groups, children and families, knit and knatter, community bingo's, energy efficient cookery course and much more
