Who is our welcome space for?

With everyone struggling with the cost of living, we originally set up our cafe as a warm space throughout the winter for anyone to use. However, due to its popularity we decided to continue running space with free refreshments throughout the whole year.

This has been made possible thank to the kind support of Transforming Plymouth Together and our Provide to Plymouth donors. 

Regardless of your circumstances age, or background everyone is welcome to come along and use our space.
