About us

Stone Community Hub is a registered charity that exists to relieve those in need – by reason of age, ill-health, disability, financial hardship, or other disadvantage – living in Stone (Staffordshire) and surrounding areas. By providing information, assistance, and activities to help improve the quality of life of residents we hope to alleviate the impacts of:

·  Adverse economic circumstances – e.g., an information/signposting centre, a cooked meal twice weekly and a food bank

·  Social isolation – drop-in centre, people to talk to, crafting & refreshments.

Our aim is to increase the number of services that we offer and reach more residents of Stone and surrounding areas.
