Our Christmas Present Appeal is now open! We're collecting new, unwrapped gifts for local children and young people this Christmas. Donate a gift, refer a family, or support us through JustGiving and help make Christmas a little brighter for families across Hackney. Thank you
Accessibility matters. That's why we've introduced hearing devices for our worship services.
It's another step on our journey towards being a church where everyone is welcomed, valued, and able to take part.
A small change, but an important one. Sensory boxes are now available around our hall. We're learning how to make church more inclusive and accessible for everyone, and we'd love you to be part of the journey. #InclusiveChurch #EveryoneBelongs #Neurodiversity
Music Man Project sessions are on a break over the summer. However, we'd love to invite our current members, as well as anyone interested in joining us when sessions resume in September, to a Coffee, Cake and Karaoke afternoon. Wednesday 12th Aug , 1-2:30pm. Free charge
We’re delighted to share that we were nominated for a 2026 London Dangoor Award.
Although we weren’t selected as an award winner, we’re honoured to be a recognised project in 2026 and will receive a certificate at the awards dinner in September.

Katy Unwin and Léon van Ommen reflect: "Autistic people reported experiencing significantly more sensory barriers in church/worship services and rated that they may not attend church/find attending difficult because of the sensory environment." Read here: doi.org/10.1177/009164712412…

An important of learning, reflecting and working out how to practically make church a relevant, meaningful experience for autistic adults and children and think about how we become an inclusive space for them and their families.

This week's quote is from Issue 2 of our Neurodiversity and Faith series, which is on the topic of autism and church. The series offers short written reports of research projects taking place at the Centre.
