Chard Community Hub thrives thanks to the generosity of individuals, groups, and businesses in Chard. Every contribution—big or small—helps us continue offering vital services and support across the community.

The community support for the Hub is inspirational

• Our community has shown incredible creativity and commitment in supporting the Hub. Fundraisers have included:

  • Challenge Events – from mountain climbs to endurance activities, local champions have pushed their limits to raise funds.

  • Social Evenings – lively quiz nights, music tribute shows, and themed gatherings have brought people together while supporting our work.

  • Creative Fundraisers – bake sales, raffles, and craft fairs have helped raise vital funds and awareness.

  • Sporting Activities – rowing challenges and fitness-based events have been popular ways to combine fun and fundraising.

  Every effort, big or small, makes a real difference to the services we provide for the Chard community.
