Jubilee Hub Consultation 2026

Have your say! on the services and facilities at Jubilee Hub

Saffron Walden Town Council (SWTC) is again seeking the views and opinions of Saffron Walden residents. It is particularly keen to hear from residents that currently attend the activities at Jubilee Hub, to understand what elements of the service are most important. SWTC is also keen to hear from those that do not currently use the services to understand why.

Responses from this consultation will help to inform the future direction, improve the offering and services delivered from Jubilee Hub - the data will similarly be used to make further improvements to the building and infrastructure – and by illustrating a strong community voice, it will also support a substantial bid to The National Lottery.

The consultation closes at 12 noon on Friday 30 October 2026. Have your say by completing the short survey;
• Online at saffronwalden.gov.uk/news/jubilee-hub-consultation-2025/ (or via the link in our bio)
• Or by collecting a paper copy from Jubilee Hub or Tourist Information Centre.

The Jubilee Hub Partnership comprises Saffron Walden Town Council (SWTC), Enterprise East Group CIC and Uttlesford Community Action Network. Jubilee Hub opened its doors in April 2023 with a soft launch phase of activities over its first year which proved to be a busy time for the partnership. In the last two years the partnership has established a varied activity programme offering youth services such as; Chat & Chill Youth Group and The Artist Hour, as well as retaining the established programme such as The Fellarship and Warm Welcome Hub. October 2025 saw the opening of the kitchen offering its community lunches on Mondays and Wednesdays.
