St John's Stratford E15 - Spaces Available For Community Use

St John's Centre at Stratford

We have a number of rooms and facilities which can be used to meet the needs of the local community.
We particularly seek to provide space and encouragement for :

Community Arts
Children and Young People
Community Meetings and Events
Education and Training

A subsidiary aim is to allow the church to be open for a large part of every day as a place of peace and quiet in a busy part of London, and as a venue for displays and exhibitions.

Spaces Available For Use :

THE CHRISTCHURCH ROOM. A large hall with seating for 80 people. A mix of carpet and vinyl flooring and a small kitchenette makes this room suitable for a wide variety of different uses. This room is suitable for under-8's.
THE ST STEPHEN ROOM. A medium-sized room with seating for up to 16 people, popular for small meetings and teaching/training sessions. This room is suitable for under-8's. It can be subdivided, if required, to form two small rooms. This is particularly popular as a creche for large events in the Christchurch Room.
THE ENTRANCE FOYER/CAFÉ. An informal space for evening meetings, displays, public consultations and informal teaching sessions.
THE ST AIDEN ROOM. Located in the church basement it is a spacious room that takes up to 20 people. This room has no natural light from windows so is not suitable for all day sessions, but would be very suitable for a half day meeting, training session or workshop.
THE CHURCH. Provides seating for 400 people and is particularly suitable for very large meetings and concerts. There is a piano and an excellent pipe organ.
