A new place for information, advice, support and connection.

Park Library in Cavendish Square is home to a Community Hub – a welcoming space where you can get advice, guidance and support in one place.


What is a Community Hub?

A Community Hub means local access to information and support as well as a great space to connect with others.

It brings together council teams, partner organisations and community groups under one roof, so it’s easier to get help early – whether that’s for you, your children, your family or someone you care about.


We want hubs to feel:

  • Welcoming

  • Easy to use

  • Joined up

  • Rooted in the local community

And we want to shape them with you.


What is available at Park Library & Community Hub?

Alongside the existing library offer, support available at the hub includes:

  • A drop-in space where you can speak to Swindon Borough Council officers who can help you navigate services and find the right information, advice or support

  • Citizens Advice for welfare guidance and practical financial support

  • Youth work sessions delivered with Young Swindon and Wiltshire

  • Employment and skills advice

  • Housing and homelessness prevention support

  • Space for partners such as police and health colleagues to meet residents

You don’t need to know which service you need. Just start the conversation with us.


Why Park South?

Park Library sits at the heart of Cavendish Square, close to shops, schools, a pharmacy and GP surgery.

Park Library and Community Hub is our first prototype hub. That means we’re continuing to shape it, try things, listen carefully and improve as we go.

Your feedback will directly influence how this hub develops and how future hubs across Swindon take shape.

  • Community Hubs are being set up in some Swindon libraries.  They bring different services together in one place to help make it easier for people to get advice and support. 

    We want the Hubs to feel friendly and welcoming.

    People can drop in when they need help or want to talk to others.  

    Your feedback will help us improve the Community Hubs.

    We want to make sure they meet the needs of local people. 

    You can fill in this survey with a member of staff.

    Many thanks,

    This isn’t something we’re doing to the community. It’s something we’re building with you. We want to understand your views on the Community Hub.
