Numbers will be limited so if you would like to book a space please contact Nat.Hairsine@staugustinescentrehalifax.org.uk. We also need volunteers to help out with activities so if you are interested, please email Nat.
Welcome to Our Centre
St. Augustine’s Centre, based on Hanson Lane in Halifax, is a community centre for anyone who needs help, advice or support. Since 1968 we have offered a warm and welcoming environment for people to access support and advice from friendly workers and volunteers. We aim to help individuals with basic needs, and hope to build confidence to encourage participation within the community and to prevent isolation. We strive to respond to the needs of our community, offering specialist advice and support to refugees, asylum seekers and migrants. We welcome everyone, regardless of faith, ethnicity or background to access the support they need and take part in social activities and events.
Donate
Donating to the Centre couldn’t be easier and you can make either a one-off payment or a monthly donation.
If you donate to St. Augustine’s Centre you can be certain that we will use your donation wisely in our work supporting the vulnerable.
Thank you for your support.
Listen to our English for Life in the U.K. podcast!
English for life in the U.K. is one of the ESOL classes here at the Centre, run by a team of our volunteers. There is a weekly podcast to support this class which is available here, which we hope will be of interest to anyone wanting to improve their English and learn more about life in the U.K. There are also transcripts of most of the episodes here, and there is additional material available through our twitter account here.
