The Bishopdale Community Trust was established in 1999 to support people in the northwest area of Christchurch, in particular Bishopdale.
We do this by:
  • Helping people feel part of the community
  • Offering a warm welcome, listening ear and a drink
  • Running weekly groups and activities
  • Operating Sundbye Community House as a drop-in community centre for locals
  • Publishing the quarterly Bishopdale Bulletin newsletter
  • Maintaining the Bishopale Directory which provides information on activities, groups and clubs, services, churches, schools, shops and businesses in the Bishopdale area.

Drop into Sundbye House any time for a  hot or cold drink, meet old friends and make new ones.

Normal opening hours: Monday to Thursday from 10am till 3pm.
