Welcome to ShipShape Community Hub

Supporting our community to live safe, healthy & fulfilling lives.

Who We Are

Although our vision and mission have remained constant, our growth has been remarkable. ShipShape began in 2006 as a grassroots project, run by just two volunteers. We have since evolved into a “one-stop-shop,” empowering the community from a larger, welcoming premises on Sharrow Lane. We now have a dedicated team of 10 experienced staff and 7 trained volunteers. We moved premises in 2012 and became an independent Workers' Cooperative and Limited Company in 2015. We are grateful for all our funders’ support.

What We Do

At ShipShape Community Hub, we are dedicated to tackling health inequalities and empowering wellbeing through accessible, community-led services. We offer a diverse range of free and low-cost group and one-to-one sessions, both at our welcoming Centre and in outreach venues. Our programs include a one-to-one Health Trainer service, chronic pain support, healthy cooking, exercise classes, and various social groups. Working with a wide network of partner agencies, we also host popular trips and community events to build connection and foster a supportive environment for all.
