THE WHY
The future of every city starts in its suburbs.
We believe the future of every city starts in its suburbs — and that every suburb is already standing on the raw material of its own transformation: the spaces, the goods, the skills, the people. What’s missing isn’t resources. It’s activation. Spaghetti Hub exists to close that gap.
WHERE IT STARTED
It began in Hillcrest, at St Francis — a tired, transient, Sunday-centred church quietly becoming a living neighbourhood presence. Bread shared, tables set, work and welcome woven through ordinary life. Groundwork, KitchenLoop, GardenLoop and Harvest Hub were all forged there, with a real church and a real neighbourhood. Everything on this site was tested before it was offered.
WHO’S BEHIND IT
Spaghetti Hub was founded by Andrew Sing — accountant, cross-cultural mission worker, strategy advisor and board member. The team brings years across business, not-for-profits, churches and social enterprise. What makes it unusual is the combination: faith and strategy in the same room — the ability to talk about the soul of a community and a workable plan in the same breath, and mean both.

FAQs -frequently asked questions
Q. What is Spaghetti Spaces? A: Spaghetti Spaces helps churches and community organisations across Hamilton turn underused buildings, land, goods and backyards into practical social enterprises. You keep ownership of your assets — Spaghetti Hub does the work of activating them.
Q: What is the difference between Spaghetti Hub and Spaghetti Spaces? A: Spaghetti Spaces is a platform of Spaghetti Hub. Spaghetti Hub is the founding organisation; Spaghetti Spaces is how it delivers suburb and asset activation to churches and community groups.
Q: Who founded Spaghetti Hub? A: Spaghetti Hub was founded by Andrew Sing — an accountant, cross-cultural mission worker, strategy advisor and board member. The team also includes Richard Parsons (Lead Hub Advisor), Tony Wescott (St Francis Church Vicar & Community Advisor) and Graham Ferry (Community Advisor).
Q: Is this only for churches? A: No. Spaghetti Hub works with churches, trusts and charities, clubs and societies, and neighbourhood groups. Churches can go deeper into calling and mission through Groundwork for Churches, but the model is built for any trusted local organisation.
Q: Where did this start? A: It began in Hillcrest, at St Francis — a Sunday-centred church that has become a living neighbourhood presence. Groundwork, KitchenLoop, GardenLoop and Harvest Hub were all first developed there before being offered to other organisations.
Q: What is the big idea behind this? A: That the future of every city starts in its suburbs, and every suburb already contains the treasure it needs to thrive — buildings, land, goods, people and local knowledge — just sitting underused. The work is to find and activate what's already there, not to import something new.
NOT A TEMPLATE.
This isn’t a template dropped onto your organisation. It’s built with governance and mission alignment in mind from day one. We are here to identify a local problem. Build a solution from local assets. Run it, refine it, replicate it.
