The Old Chemist

The Old Chemist is the hub of most of our interaction with our local community.  This Edwardian shop front on the street corner in Bitterne Park Triangle is a warm and welcoming space for Community, church and private hire events, including wellbeing activities, creative events and community gatherings.  Church members are involved in different activities over the week and month at the Old Chemist that serve specific purposes or create particular spaces.  Some of the activities held at the Old Chemist are organised and run by church members, some by other organisations and others in partnership between the church and other groups.
