Church & Community

Tubestation is a hub of creativity, connection and collaboration. Over the years, our space has been used as a cinema, a recording studio, for toddler groups, gigs, dance classes, Extinction Rebellion lectures and beach cleans. Our half-pipe is regularly used by local skaters. Tubestation has been put to use as a set for documentaries, films and TV series, and is regularly used for surf comps, and as a workspace and meeting place for local businesses and freelancers. 

So whatever your project, hustle, passion or initiative, we’d love to have you as part of our community Tubestation.

In our space, wet dogs, wet wetsuits and wet feet are all welcome.

Tubestation’s Vision

Tubestation is a community that nurtures relationships between all people, creating a creative space where everyone is invited to connect with faith through Jesus. Our vision is to build a community that is connected, creative and inclusive. We are animated by the life, example and message of Jesus, a Christ centred community that joins with God in the restoration of all of creation.

Our values

CONNECTED

Tubestation wants to discover and explore God together, a God who is beyond anyone’s imagination or knowledge. We are committed to going on this journey of listening and learning together.

COMMUNITY

Tubestation is an inclusive Christ-centred community. We are passionate about curating spaces for questions and conversation. We want everyone to find belonging and safety, and to flourish in every circumstance life throws at us!

 CREATIVE

Tubestation is a place that celebrates creativity through skating, surfing, swimming, faith, food, art, and music. Creativity is an expression of the Spirit of our Creator God.

Sunday Gathering 10am-11.30am

Our Sunday Gatherings are where faith and coastal culture meet. Rooted in the heartbeat of Polzeath, we come together each week to worship, pray, explore scripture, and share life as a community shaped by creativity, surf, and skate. Whether you’re a local, a visitor, a surfer waiting for the next set, or a skater looking for a place to belong, you’re invited to join us just as you are.

This year we’re also trialling Breakaway Sundays—a chance to step outside the usual rhythm and explore faith in new, refreshing, and sometimes unexpected ways. These gatherings may look a little different, but they carry the same heart: to encounter God, build community, and live out love in our everyday lives.

Come along, bring a friend, and be part of a welcoming community that seeks God and adventure in equal measure.

Thursday Prayer | 11:00

We meet at Tubestation on Thursday mornings. We pray for Cornwall, for our world, and for each other. Our Pastoral Leads can offer spiritual support and  prayer to those who need it, including those who can’t easily access the Tubestation venue at Polzeath.

Home Groups

As well as meeting as a whole church every week in Polzeath, we also meet in smaller groups in people’s homes. There are currently home groups running in St Columb Major, Wadebridge and Camelford. Home groups might share meals together, chat about a certain issue or topic relating to faith, surf together, go on walks or help out at Foodbanks and local charities… each home group is a reflection of the unique people who make it up!

Art, Pop-Ups & Events

Zeath Art Gallery

Zeath Gallery is a vibrant creative hub nestled in the heart of Polzeath, North Cornwall. Situated opposite the beach on Trebetherick Hill, our gallery is a place where the spirit of surf, skate, and coastal life meets inspiring art and fresh expressions of faith.

Who we are

At Zeath Gallery we believe art tells stories—about the ocean, about community, about change, and about hope. Whether it’s bold surf-inspired paintings, handcrafted jewellery, or contemporary sculpture, each piece reflects the creativity of our region and the rhythms of beach and board life. 

What we offer
  • A regularly updated collection of original artworks and handcrafted pieces by local and visiting artists.

  • A relaxed gallery space where you’re free to browse, reflect, chat, or just soak in the view of waves rolling in.

  • A connection to the broader community at Tubestation — a home for surf culture, spiritual journeying, and community expression.

Come visit

Come by to catch the latest exhibition, grab a moment of calm near the coast, or find a piece of art that speaks to you or someone you love. Whether you’re a seasoned collector or just curious, you’ll find something that invites you into the story of this place and people.

Opening times & location

We’re open Tuesday to Saturday, 11 am to 4 pm. In season (closed now until March) Whether you’re stepping off the surf, coming for a stroll, or seeking inspiration—drop in, say hi, and stay for a while.

Pop-Ups & Events

Tubestation functions as a hub for creativity, connection, and collaboration. Over the years our building has welcomed everything from toddler groups, gigs, dance classes, and film screenings to beach-clean meet-ups, recording sessions, and even TV and documentary crews. Our indoor half-pipe continues to be a cherished gathering spot for local skaters and visiting riders alike.

 

In recent seasons, our pop-up cafés have brought new energy into the space, creating moments of hospitality, conversation, and community that have been incredibly well received. We’ve also enjoyed partnering with Rev 7 and others for pop-up collaborations that blend creativity, worship, community and culture in fresh and inspiring ways.

 

Beyond cafés and collaborations, the Tube regularly hosts creative workshops, community surf sessions, and reflective gatherings such as The Filling Station, giving people of all ages a space to explore faith, wellbeing, and the outdoors.

 

Seasonal events, from beachside celebrations to arts-driven community nights help keep our space vibrant, welcoming, and deeply rooted in the life of Polzeath.

 

Tubestation’s long-term vision is to remain a sustainable, life-giving hub where creativity, faith, and community meet. As we look toward the future, we’re committed to developing our physical spaces, strengthening partnerships, and expanding our wellbeing-focused activities to deepen our social and spiritual impact.
