The Wade Centre, formerly The Wade Infants School, was redeveloped by St Thomas’ Church during 2012–13. The project cost close to half a million pounds, and was funded mainly by Church members’ generosity and St Thomas’ Nursery, who developed some of The Wade Centre rooms into new nursery accommodation.
Some of the renovated rooms at The Wade Centre are now available for the community to hire for functions and receptions.
