The Community Hub was once a derelict chapel filled with rubble, old pews from other churches, chairs, and other junk collected over the years. After years of wishing, the Friends received a £150,000 grant made up of awards from the Heritage Lottery Fund, WREN, FCC Environment, Barnsley Council and our own funding.
​
In 2016, NPS Barnsley completed the work that needed to be done to the chapel to make it into the building it is today. The final outcome of the building is remarkable.
