The Place is a much-loved community and activity centre in Sherwood, providing a welcoming, inclusive space for people of all ages to come together. From classes, creative workshops and social groups to support networks and community-led initiatives, The Place plays a vital role in reducing isolation and strengthening our local community.

As a community-led, not-for-profit organisation, we do not have the reserves to cover these costs without support. Every pound raised will go directly towards securing professional advice and assessments that protect the long-term future of The Place.
