Facilities

At the Basement Project you can do as much or as little as you want. At the heart of the basement  is a designated chillout area, with tv for watching series or using one of our gaming consoles. 

We have a computer suite and homework space for catching up with school work, or for keeping work out of the home. 

We have a fully fitted kitchen from which we provide hot and cold drinks, plus hot food. 

There is a large table for eating, or for doing arts and crafts. 
 

Upstairs in the Church Hall we can play team games such as dodgeball. 

To further support the users, we have laundry facilities, a private shower, plus youth leaders trained in pastoral support.
