Thank you for making our coffee shop possible

Our new coffee shop has been made possible thanks to Lottery funding from the People’s Projects. We’d like to thank everyone who voted for us during our People’s Projects campaign in April, it’s thanks to your votes that we secured the funding for our special community coffee shop, which will not only serve up a perfect cuppa but also important job skills training opportunities for local blind and partially sighted people.
