Acres donates new sign to local youth club – The Athenaeum Hub

25th February 2026

 

We were proud to donate and manufacture a new sign for the Athenaeum Hub in Melbourne, Derbyshire. 🤝

We were approached by the team that run The Athenaeum to help rebuild an illuminated sign box that had suffered damage.
The sign needed to house the current illuminated perspex light box, so we created a suitable steel enclosure with laser-cut lettering allowing the light through from the inside. This was then powder coated in satin black.

Connected with Melbourne Methodist Church, the Hub is a dedicated youth and community facility providing a safe and welcoming environment for young people and local residents. With a busy weekly timetable of youth sessions, community groups and support activities, it plays an important role in bringing people together across all ages.

💛 We’re pleased to support a space that has such a positive impact in our local area. To learn more about the fantastic work they do, visit their Facebook page: Athenaeum Hub.

While engineering and fabrication remain at the core of what we do at Acres Engineering, this project highlights the breadth of our in-house manufacturing capabilities — including bespoke signage and custom fabrication. 🛠️

If your business or organisation requires custom metalwork, fabrication or signage solutions, our team would be happy to help.
