Community Wednesdays are the heart of our week. Mornings buzz with our seniors' group, followed by a vibrant community drop-in featuring our "pay-what-you-can" café and the Community Fridge & Cupboard, providing local residents with access to fresh and frozen food while preventing waste. Afternoons offer a relaxing crafting session open to all. We also provide invaluable support with an on-site former Citizens Advice adviser and, some weeks, other agencies, fostering connections and helping residents navigate challenges.

Step outside and discover our thriving community garden, lovingly tended by volunteers of all ages. You'll often find groups enjoying refreshments and socializing here. This garden is a vital part of our mission to reduce loneliness and social isolation, fostering connection and well-being within our community."

 

 

Our Warm Hub: A Sanctuary from the Cold

In December 2022, we proudly joined Surrey's Warm Hub network, a vital initiative designed to support residents during challenging times. Our hub offers a welcoming haven twice a week, providing not just warmth but also a guaranteed warm welcome, hot drinks, and a delicious pay-what-you-can lunch. Beyond physical comfort, we also have individuals on hand to offer free energy advice whenever you need it. We believe in fostering a supportive community where everyone feels welcome and cared for.
