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
  • Running groups and activities
  • Operating a drop-in space for locals at the Community Hub
  • Publishing the quarterly Bishopdale Bulletin newsletter
  • Maintaining the Online Bishopdale Directory which provides information on activities, groups and clubs, services, churches, schools, shops and businesses in the Bishopdale area.

Drop into our Community Hub Monday to Thursday between 10am and 3pm for a chat over a cuppa, meet old friends, make new ones, and feel connected and supported. All are welcome!

Our opening hours are:
Monday - Thursday
10am - 3pm
