Groups
Phoenix Room set out in Boardroom style
St Peter’s Centre is the hub of Hillfields where groups meet to share and celebrate their cultural values. Like minded people meet, on a regular basis, to discuss and contribute to the changing landscape of this vibrant neighbouthood. Hillfields is a dynamic and changing neighbourhood, in the St Michael’s Ward of Coventry. It has a strong community spirit and a culturally diverse population of around 10,000 people. In addition to this the The Swanswell Initiative programme is transforming the high rise, public housing landscape of the 1960′s and replacing it with new multi-tenure apartments and housing, a relocated City College, a new school and a new healthcare centre.
The Swanswell Initiative Community Liaison Group meet at St Peter’s Centre on a six weekly basis.
Autonomous organisations operating from St Peter’s Centre:
Community Library open five days per week including Saturday afternoon.
Kairos an organisation that supports women who express the wish to leave prostitution, to develop skills, and to start a new life.
Re-Unite Project
Re-Unite is a partnership between The Children’s Society and Coventry Connexions. We work with children or young people under the age of eighteen who spend one night or more away from the family home or care without permission, or who have been forced to leave by their parents or carers.
We aim to help young people to stay safe by empowering them to address the risk factors in their lives. The project provides them with advice, guidance and support in a manner that is respectful of their needs and their safety.
To make a referral you can phone or complete a project referral, including a brief risk assessment, and send by post or email, which will help us decide whether the young person needs general support or intensive support.
New Communities Forum have an office at St Peter’s Centre.
