Kew Community Trust
Kew Community Trust is a completely independent secular charity, based in St. Luke’s in the Avenue, a building leased from the Church of England, which provides excellent facilities for all our activities, and is easily accessed by public transport.
The staff, supported by trustees, work in a number of ways to make a positive contribution to the lives of many people across the local area.
The Avenue Club
Our main activity is The Avenue Club, which operates on weekdays (usually between 10am and 3pm), providing a wide and interesting range of classes, activities and services for our 500+ members. Details of current classes can be found on the timetable click here.
If you have any enquiries or need advice please do get in touch. To speak to a member of The Avenue Club staff either call on 020 8948 8807 or email avenueclub@kewcommunitytrust.org.uk.
The Avenue Halls
We have a number of excellent value rooms and facilities available for hire, on a ‘one off’ or regular basis, through our ‘Avenue Halls’. Classes and activities are offered in these, run by independent providers, usually outside The Avenue Club hours. Local groups and societies, including the Community Choir, often use our facilities for meetings…and people of all ages and stages of their life choose our facilities as a venue for their special celebrations. Please click here to see our regular hirers for current information.

Community Activities & Social Events
We support a range of social events for the Kew community and other local charities, including ‘Meet in Kew’ a monthly gathering for anyone who lives or works in Kew who enjoys meeting – or re-meeting – neighbours..
Please also feel free to email our Chief Executive, Simon Boddis or Cindy Brosnan, our General Manager on any Trust issues. Simon’s email is simon@kewcommunitytrust.org.uk and Cindy’s is cindy@kewcommunitytrust.org.uk.
LATEST NEWS:
2022
Summer is here and the Centre is buzzing with activity. Classes are back at full strength and our Halls are welcoming visitors for a host of celebrations and events. Please do contact us or pop into the Centre to see what we have to offer and to join in with our activities.
Please do come along to our monthly ‘Meet in Kew’. A social event for the community held on the first Thursday of every month at the Avenue Halls between 7pm and 9pm. Entry is free and all are welcome! Please join us for a glass of Pimms or exceptional wine for a small donation. All profits go to community projects.
Our AGM will be held on Monday 26th September, between 7pm and 9pm. Our AGM provides the opportunity to highlight the work of the Trust and to celebrate what we have achieved, mostly due to many of you across the community who support our work. We are looking forward to a full house again after previous restrictions. Refreshments will be available.
We want to be able to offer as many activities as existing and future new Members would like. If you have any ideas, please let the Avenue Club staff know. We would also like to increase the number of volunteers we have – this does not have to be a major commitment and even a couple of occasional hours can be personally rewarding whilst also adding significantly to the life of the Community. If you are interested, then again please talk to the Avenue Club staff.
