Sells bikes for cheap to help people who are struggling financially and with health issues. Very friendly and helpful
A hidden little gem with a welcoming team! Lots of activities for all ages including... a low-cost cafe & therapeutic community gardening project & a well-being woodwork shop. Its a must visit they have lots going on π
We went to the babies and toddler group (Thursdays 9:30am) great space, lovely people and very welcoming. Β£2.50, first one is free and they make a decent cup of coffee (free)!
I only visited in readiness for the queens Jubilee to drop some things off for the children party bags But I was made welcome and the lady I met was very nice
