About Us

The Stacey Community Centre is owned by our landlord, Portsmouth City Council, who lease the premises to The Stacey Association.

The Stacey Association is a registered charity (Charity No: 278364) run by a committee of local resident volunteers and trustees who meet regularly to manage The Stacey Community Centre and The Stacey Pre-School.

We do this by following the Association's Objects which are:

to maintain and manage the establishment of a community centre
to offer opportunities for volunteering
to offer opportunities for education
to provide facilities in the interest of social welfare for recreational and leisure time, striving to provide a broad and balanced programme for the whole of the community
to ensure that all profit and surpluses made by the Association are utilised solely in promotion of our objects

The Stacey Association meets the above objects by:

Offering competitively priced hire rooms of varying sizes to regular group hirers: currently we provide our community with access to yoga, dance, spots and fitness classes, puppy and dog training classes, ante-natal courses and workshops for bicycle repair and maintenance, we also act us host venue to Winners Chapel International to provide regular Wednesday and Sunday religious services.
