Welcome to the The Olton Project (TOP). Over the last 10 years, we have been providing safe, open spaces for the community to meet, learn and grow together. It’s been a blessing to be able to continue this in our new premises, the beautiful ‘church amongst the trees’.
TOP was started by a few families from the Olton area, and has grown organically over the years, offering a variety of activities and events, including: spiritual gatherings of remembrance and mindfulness; language and religious classes; weekly coffee mornings; leisure activities; guest speakers on topical subjects; social functions, and much more.
We hope you will reach out and join us on this blessed journey.
At The Olton Project, we believe in the power of community and the enduring legacy of our companions. As we embark on our mission to serve and uplift, we invite you to be a part of something truly special. Introducing “Support 313” – a unique opportunity to honour the esteemed companions while contributing to the ongoing efforts of The Olton Project.
