Sunlight Development Trust
Sunlight Development Trust is a community owned and led charity which exists to improve the general mental and physical health and wellbeing of the Medway community.
We believe that skills, resources and meaningful experiences exist within communities. We strip away labels that stigmatise, challenge stereotypes, and break down barriers. We help people identify their needs and aspirations, exert influence on the decisions which affect their lives and improve their mental health.
The Trust is based at Sunlight Centre in Gillingham – one of the early Healthy Living Centres – where health services and community activities are located alongside each other. As well as a GP practice, Family Centre and pharmacy, you will find recording and rehearsal studios, community radio station and rooms for hire ranging from meeting and therapy rooms of all sizes to a hall with capacity for up to 100 guests. What’s more, our community café is open again!

Research has shown that crafting, no matter what you make, can boost your mood, improve self-confidence, and reduce your stress levels. It's good for dexterity and keeps you sharp! That's why our regular Thursday Wellbeing Café drop-in is 'Crafts for All'. Volunteers Lou and Bev run the group, and they'd love you to join them! You don't need to bring anything with you (unless you want to) we have plenty of materials to go round, the important thing is to get creative!bit.ly/WBCSunlight #craftsforall #creativehealth #artsandcrafts #WellbeingCafe #sunlightcentregillingham
How cool is this! If you fancy yourself as the next Robert Plant, come along and show us what you've got! Book your place at bit.ly/ShedZep, email us at info@sunlighttrust.org.uk or give us a bell 01634 581511#shedzeppelin #medwaymeninsheds #harmonyjam #communitymusic #lutonlibrary

Sunlight Centre offers a wide range of rooms and spaces for hire, giving local companies, freelancers, organisations and community members flexible options for meetings, support groups, counselling, workshops, product launches, social gatherings and children’s parties. With spaces of all shapes and sizes, from quiet private rooms to larger areas suited for group activities, there’s something to suit almost every need. Water is free, tea, coffee and milk are £1 per person. For organisations looking for a stable base, several of our rooms are also available on long‑term licence, offering consistent access, privacy and the ability to settle into a space that feels like your own. Whether you need a regular therapy room, a dependable meeting space or a small office to grow your business, we can help you find the right fit.
