The Big Difference

  Where does the food come from? The Big Difference is a  Food Redistribution Project serving the community of Southampton, based at Above Bar Church. They  work with charities and community groups in Southampton to help struggling families and the vulnerable who are facing food poverty. There is hope. All the food at Highfield Church Centre comes from the Big Difference. They are a food project in the city gathering food from supermarkets and getting it to charities and organisations who use it to help the city. Highfield Student team often go and pick up excess fresh produce to make sure it doesn't go to waste, and at the same time support students.

There's lots of ways we support students, and you can find out more  here . If you'd like to know more about the big difference you can check out their facebook page  and if you'd like to ma

About us

Welcome! University means a new season! A new city, home, friends, and hobbies. But we know life is about more than location, the people you surround yourself with, and the society you wear as a label. We challenge you to try something that matters. A community that could shape and change your life. A lifestyle that means something. A new rhythm of living that has eternal significance. Are you ready for the challenge? We invite you to try church. We have a strong, large & dynamic student community at Highfield. We always meet at 5:30pm on Sundays at Highfield Church Centre to share a free cooked meal together. We aim to finish by 6:15pm, just in time for our 6:30 evening service. We'll also gather in small groups throughout the week to grow in community, share food and develop in faith together. A small group is a place of real closeness and depth, but we also gather as a larger student body for outreach, socials and our annual weekend away. We're passionate about making a

Pre-Launch Plans!

Hey Everyone,   Welcome back from the summer! Hope you've had a refreshing time with friends and family! I was going to tell you about the vision for the term, but I've decided to hold that back just a bit longer whilst I and the student team continue to pray about it. But you don't have to wait for that, because we've got some pre-launch plans; some things that are easy going, and centred around community and prayer, because we just want to get back together with one another and with Jesus. So without further ado…   Prayer and Worship Evenings Tuesday 14th, 21st & 28th, 7pm for 7:30pm start   A time of prayer, worship and intercession for new students. We want to get together, into God's presence, and see where he leads us. It's a great chance to pray for freshers as they arrive, but also to align our hearts with Gods and to let him be known to us afresh. I can't say much about what it will look like, as that's up to God! but there'
