UPDATES:
Barclays came to one our Chatty Cafe sessions and offered free advice about banking, scams, protection, and other areas that service users had interest in. On this day we also had a children's toy swap, where members of the community swapped their old children's toys of good quality with new ones to promote recycling & re-gifting.
2025 saw a good few months of The Chatty Cafe every week! We had lots of new visitors coming to enjoy our tasty pastries and chat with our friendly volunteers. We recently moved our Chatty Cafe into the old Social Supermarket extension building which is our new Cafe/Learning suite and is now complete as a cafe.
