Happening regularly
We're not just here on Sundays. SBC is a centre for the community, and our extensive buildings
are used by local organisations who hire them on a regular basis for a whole range of activities,
from kung fu to memory cafes to workshops from the Leicestershire Dyslexia Association.
We also host our own activities, including Wellbeing Cafe and Messy Church.
If you are interested in hiring our building for a group or event,
take a look at our room hire page and get in touch.
If you already run a regular group at the church and would like it advertised on this page, let us know.

Renew Stoneygate Wellbeing Cafe

Renew Wellbeing Cafes are quiet shared spaces where it's okay not to be okay. See renewwellbeing.org.uk to learn more.
Messy Church and Messy Play
Held roughly once a month on a Friday afternoon, our Messy events are fun for all the family. See our Events page for the latest dates or follow us on Facebook or Twitter to keep up with the latest news.
Messy Play is all about open ended crafts and games, a chance to simply have fun together. Light refreshments are also available.
Messy Church is a time for crafts and creativity, plus all age storytelling and singing, ending with a meal together. A vegetarian option is always available, but please let us know in advance of any other dietary requirements.
Everyone is welcome, but all children must be accompanied by a parent or carer.
Messy Events are run jointly with St Mary's Knighton.
Small Groups
A chance to study scripture, reflect on issues of faith and life, and pray together.
We currently have one small group which meets on Wednesday evenings in members' homes.
