Centric Community Projects
Centric Community Projects works
with smaller charities and non-profit organisations
to help them operate and develop by offering
free space for their projects.
We are also able to help new businesses, created
by the disadvantaged, to reduce their overheads
and help them to become self sufficient.
Available space can be anything from an office, retail
space or industrial property for use as work or storage,
retail, service delivery, meeting areas, rehearsal space,
art studios, training – in fact anything!
Centric has already helped over 500 organisations
big and small who otherwise wouldn’t have had
the facilities to carry out their charitable activities.

Charity Hubs
We have numerous charity hubs across the country.
These are buildings where space is let to multiple charities.
This space can be used for a range of activities such as:
meeting space offices storage rehearsals training
One benefit of becoming a Centric charity hub tenant is that you
are spending your day surrounded by other charities. This provides
an excellent platform for networking and potentially joining up on
some of your charitable activities. It becomes a centre piece within
the local community and a ‘one stop shop’ for anyone seeking
to engage with charities.
Any charitable or non-profit organisation is welcome
to apply for space in our hubs.

Retail Outlets
With our growing number of retail outlets, these can be
used in a range of different ways from a traditional charity shop,
to a street presence from which to deliver your service.
We have many shops across the UK that are trading
as a traditional charity shop. In the current climate when
donations and grants are hard to achieve a shop provides
an excellent income stream for any charity.
During your tenancy there are no overheads such as rent, rates and
utility bills, meaning that this income stream is unrestricted and
enables you to deliver your charitable aims and objectives.
Other charitable organisations have used their shops as a drop-in
for their service users. As an additional or replacement workspace
to further their reach within their local communities.

Storage
Some of our buildings are designated for storage only.
These facilities are available to unclog your homes and offices.
Storage facilities can be provided for most items,
providing they are not hazardous and can be stored
in a neat and tidy manner.
Are your houses, garages or offices packed to the brim
with donated items? Maybe you need to store things
that are seasonal that you don’t need access to
all year round?
Either way, one of our storage units could free up space
and all without any cost to you.
