Hobby Hub | Canley

Hobby Hub is back at St Stephen's Church in Canley on Sunday 15 November, from 10:30am to 12pm. It's a free family session run by The Bridge Coventry, and the whole thing is built around one simple idea: a space where adults can actually have a conversation while the children play. It's the kind of morning that works as well for a quick hour as it does for a proper stay.

The room fills with board games, Lego, playdoh, crafts, nail painting and outdoor games when the weather allows. There's a dedicated toddler and baby area, so the smaller ones have their own spot, and you're encouraged to bring along a hobby of your own to share. Toast, snacks and drinks are on the table, and while donations to cover the cost of the food are welcome, they're not compulsory. The only rule is that children must be accompanied by an adult.

St Stephen's describes itself as a lively, friendly church of all ages with a passion for welcoming the outsider, and the hub sits in a monthly rhythm of family-focused offerings: a free Family Breakfast on the first Sunday, Morning Praise with a Children's Group on the second, and a Family Communion Service on the fourth. The hub itself runs every third Sunday of the month, so if you miss this one, there's another coming up in December.

It's free to come along, and the session runs from 10:30am to 12pm at St Stephen's Church, Charter Avenue, Canley, Coventry, CV4 8DJ.
