Ebe Building Works - May/June 2024

We are grateful to received a significant amount of grant funding from the Community Resilience Fund, from Bristol City Council. The grant is to be used to replace and improve the insulation of our external flat roof space and a new ceiling in the main hall of our building.

During the month of June, our building will not be in use except for church and foodbank offices. Please keep an eye on social media and website for arrangements for weekly activities and Sunday gatherings.
