As Christmas approaches we’re looking forward to a well-earned rest… but we’re not going to open our presents until the new year, when the wraps will come off Highgate Newtown Community Centre: a community-led, mixed-use development we’ve designed for Camden Council – pictured here.
Come and find out more and meet the team. We are holding an open event on:

We’ve partnered with Time to Spare to create the Highgate Newtown Community Partners Club card – a new and exciting way to be part of the HNCP community.
You will need a club card to access our services and venues. This ensures we are all kept safe and allows us to have your feedback on our services.
HNCP Club connects you with the community around HNCP and the new building, it gives you access to services and discounts, and it allows us to send you information about activities you might be interested in and our newsletter.
You can either fill out the form on our website, email ‘Time to Spare’ for an application form or you can drop by the building and fill out a physical application. You’ll then be issued your HNCP card, which you can use to scan into activities in the new building and our venues.

I am delighted to welcome you to the Autumn Programme. As local residents, our family shares Highgate Newtown Community Partners’ ambition to strive to ensure no person is ever left behind. HNCP is determined to offer low-cost or free services at the sametime as maintaining high standards. The food for the meals – which are offered at £1, for three-courses – are bought from M&S and Waitrose so that our community, many of whom are on low incomes, can enjoy the very best.
We are grateful for the kind support our partners that from 1st October allows us to lower the price of the Community Lunch to £1.00 for a 3-course meal. Thank you for your generosity.
Together with the free ‘Under 5s Stay & Play’, the children’s meals are FREE.
Talk to the people who use these services and hear from them how their lives have been improved by what HNCP has been able to provide!
HNCP now offers Thursday Pilates sessions at St Anne’s Church Highgate. Although voluntary contributions for the classes are welcome, they are now free to Camden Residents who might otherwise not be in a position to afford them. The Pilates sessions start at 10am and those who attend are welcome for free tea and coffee after the class.
Look at the website www.highgatenewtown.org.uk for all the details of these exciting an innovative projects.
With low administrative costs, Highgate Newtown Community Partners are determined to keep up the high standards and values that improved the neighbourhood’s lives during the pandemic and to continue to give the community a quality service.
In these hard times, we are grateful to Camden Council for its support now and in the future. Because times are challenging and likely to get worse, we are investing in local communities. As a team, HNCP sees these new initiatives as a bold and exciting way forward; we need to be kind to each other and to support our neighbours.
Best wishes

In June 22 we asked for feedback from 78 people who attend the lunch clubs, Wellness café and under 5 play activities. They told us the difference these activities make to them and gave us some great ideas for future menus and activities.
More than 90% rated our services at least 8 out of 10, and 100% felt welcome by our friendly staff and volunteers.
“I’m so glad I have found this little haven. Wednesday is my favourite day now. I like eating all together and the staff are excellent.” (Wellness café customer)
