Rejected petition Stop the Sale of Trinity Methodist Church, Sarum Hill – a Historic Community Hub

Pause the sale of Trinity Methodist Church, Sarum Hill, and work with local authorities, heritage bodies, and the Methodist Church to preserve the building as a place of Christian worship and community service in the centre of Basingstoke.

More details

Trinity Methodist Church on Sarum Hill has served Basingstoke for over 50 years as a place of Christian worship, community support, and children’s and youth activities.

The proposed sale would remove the last Methodist presence from central Basingstoke and permanently end its use as a community space. We call for urgent action to protect this historic site so it can continue serving as a centre for worship, community engagement, and support for children and families.
