Cumberland Hub

Our Cumberland Hub is a welcoming, recovery focused community space at the heart of the city. It’s a place where people can drop in for connection, support, and a sense of belonging – whether they’re beginning their recovery journey, rebuilding their lives, or simply looking for a friendly, nonjudgemental space.

The hub offers peer support, groups, activities, and practical help, all shaped by the needs of the local community. Everyone is welcome to walk through the door and feel part of something positive.
