Effra Space

To find out more about effraspace, we have to go back to the founder, Pinter & Martin. Pinter & Martin is a Brixton-based non-fiction publishing company specialising in books on pregnancy, childbirth and parenting. For over twenty years, Pinter and Martin hosted book launches, groups, workshops and courses from their office, and as their numbers grew they began to look for a bigger space to host these events.

Then when an old dilapidated community centre down the road become available, it seemed like the perfect fit. Fast-forward through six months of planning and six months of renovations, effraspace was officially opened in April 2016.

Now effraspace is host to a range of activities, from postnatal and pregnancy classes, to meditation workshops, free film nights, private hire and a licensed cafe. They hold a full schedule of baby, toddler, kids, and adult classes – all with fully certified and DBS insured teachers. You are welcome to pop in for a coffee or a chat at any time, and they cater to mums and babies, prams and toddlers in our breastfeeding-friendly cafe.

For those looking for something fun to do in Brixton, Effraspace often hosts book launches, family workshops, guided meditation sessions and free film nights.
