News and Events
Free Meal Vouchers
We were able to provide free meals during the Easter holidays to several families whose children have free school meals. This is funded through the marble jar – our pay forward system. If you would like to contribute towards this please do ask at the till.
Building Repairs Update
Thank you to all those who have been praying for this. We expect repairs to take place over the summer. The property managers have a preferred quote but are awaiting the go ahead from the insurers. There are also plans for a new roof on the whole building with work starting in September, do pray for wisdom in the planning of this, that it won’t be too disruptive to businesses or residents.
Outside Catering
Did you know that we are able to supply buffet catering for your events? From small meetings, up to large events for 100 people, we supply sandwiches made freshly on the day, our delicious homemade cakes, quiches and lots of other finger foods. Do get in touch if you have an event you need catering for.

Monthly Hot Meal Special
This will be served on Wednesday 28th May at 12.30pm – please book in advance so that we know how many to cater for.
AGM
Our AGM will be held on Monday 16th June at 7pm. We have a treat in store, as author Nick Page will be speaking. Nick has written many books over the years, including The Tabloid Bible, the Badly Behaved Bible and Dark Night of the Shed.

As if that isn’t enough, we will also be announcing our plans for our 30th birthday celebrations later in the year.
