Sutton in the Elms Baptist church was originally founded around 1646, making it the oldest baptist church in Leicestershire.
This thriving place of worship and social events for many local families needed an upgrade and expansion, as well as adaptation to ensure all members of the community could use the church.
The project saw extensive alterations and linked extensions to the existing Grade II* Listed church, alongside a new central multi-use space for welcoming, relaxing and socialising.
The project sought to link the church and the church hall, to create a large useable circulation space and café area. Previously on different floor levels, these areas had accessibility issues for some people.
The new central glazed hub came with additional multi-use rooms and meeting spaces, and included much improved toilet facilities and a modernised kitchen
The church also invested in the installation of energy efficient heating systems, along with improved thermal fabric on all existing structures to reduce their environmental impact and heating costs.
