Stockport, United KingdomJoined 2026

The Space is a highly versatile, independent community hub and intimate venue hire facility located in the heart of Stockport town centre. Operating out of a welcoming building on St Petersgate, the venue serves a dual purpose as a dedicated sanctuary for wellbeing, respite, and social support services during the day, which transitions into an adaptive private hire venue for evenings and weekends. Its prominent urban position places it just steps away from the historic St Peter's Square and the Merseyway Shopping Centre, making it highly accessible for local residents and visitors arriving via Stockport’s primary transport links.The interior layout focuses heavily on a bright, clean, and flexible aesthetic designed to easily adapt to wide-ranging communal and private activities. The building features excellent natural light, wheelchair-accessible entrances, and accessible restroom facilities, ensuring a thoroughly inclusive environment. The venue regularly welcomes a diverse calendar of events, including local charity support networks, holistic art therapy circles, independent group workshops, and family gatherings. Furthermore, it acts as a regular home for recurring cultural events, such as local weekly meditation series and holistic practice sessions. Managed with a community-first approach, the space provides an affordable, blank-canvas backdrop that empowers local organizers to customize seating plans, bring in outside catering, and host meaningful town-centre gatherings.
