SAINTS PROJECTS

Our Saints Projects are community-focused social enterprises that operate in partnership with local churches in some of our most deprived parishes. Each project provides a welcoming, affordable café that not only serves as a gathering place, but also runs a number of programmes and activities tailored to the needs of the local community in which the centre operates.
At Together for Change, we aim to continue to expand our Saints projects across the Diocese to provide vital support and to alleviate the impact of poverty in our lowest income communities.

Nuneaton
SAINTS CENTRAL
Saints Central is our flagship Saints Project, operating in the heart of Nuneaton Town Centre. Born from a vision of Nuneaton churches and Together for Change, the project launched in 2020. The core mission of Saints Central is to alleviate the effects of poverty within the town. Looking towards the next 5 years, Saints Central has just complete its Phase 2 Renovations launching the newly renovated upstairs hall. This paves the way to expand the activities provided at the centre and moves the project towards becoming a sustainable social enterprise.

Bar Pool
SAINTS BAR POOL
Following the success of our Saints project, Together for Change secured funding from Warwickshire County Council’s Social Fabric Fund to launch Saints Bar Pool. Opening in 2025, it will follow the Saints Central model, with programmes for residents of Bar Pool, one of Nuneaton’s most deprived wards. The mission is to create a community-led space offering a warm welcome, accessible activities, courses, and engagement with local agencies and partners. Saints Bar Pool aims to support and uplift the local community through inclusive, needs-focused initiatives.

Bell Green
SAINTS BELL GREEN
Working in partnership with the parish of Foleshill St Laurence and the Diocese of Coventry, Together for Change will establish a new Saints initiative in Bell Green, Coventry. Launching in 2026, Saints Bell Green will follow the model of our other Saints projects, with a targeted approach to meet the needs of the Bell Green Community. The core mission of Saints Bell Green is to provide a community-led initiative that offers a variety of programmes that address disparities, gaps and inequalities within the local community.
