New Bespoke Hall

The Sara Lee Therapy Centre in Sidley, Bexhill, was opened in autumn 2017 to provide complementary therapies, counselling and group support to local people. The Centre is highly accessible and provides an alternative location in Bexhill for those who cannot travel to The Trust’s therapy rooms at St Michael’s Hospice.
​
Over the last five years, it has become clear that demand for The Sara Lee Trust’s services in the area is much higher than we can accommodate in the existing building. Now, we are pleased to announce that The Trust has received funding support of £249,000 from The National Lottery Communities Fund to develop a new bespoke hall space adjacent to the Therapy Centre.

​This new hall space will allow The Trust to expand group support and activities with a partitioned hall which will accommodate groups of up to 20 for gentle yoga, mindfulness and other group activities, as well as be available out of hours for fundraising events.

The existing Centre will also be remodelled to provide an extra therapy room; and a further counselling room and breakout space will be included in the new building.

The Therapy Centre will be closed for a portion of the year due to the building works, however all of The Trust’s therapies, counselling and group activities will still be available at other local sites, as well as in the home and online.

The new building is planned to open in March 2023.
