Alicia Kearns MP officially opened The Rutland Hub at Cornerstone House on Melton Road, marking a vibrant new chapter for community life in Oakham.

Operated by the Oakham Baptist Church, the newly launched facility aims to serve as a versatile gathering space for local residents, groups, and families. The grand opening festivities drew people from across the county to tour the updated building, which features dedicated multi-use rooms.

The celebratory launch day featured a packed schedule of community events, including the Official Ribbon Cutting, performed by local MP Alicia Kearns to formally open the hub.

A morning cake baking contest and an afternoon coffee-tasting challenge. There were complimentary treats and community socialising.

Located next to the Oakham Baptist Church, the venue (previously known as the Hub & Spoke and originally The White Lion pub) will offer regular daytime amenities, rental spaces, and ongoing programming designed to strengthen local connections.
