The new management warmly invite the community to call in at any time. Centre volunteer, Briege, will be on hand on Friday mornings with newspapers, tea/coffee and homemade scones. When the doors are open the kettle will always be on! The Centre aims to provide a welcoming space where the community can call in any time, have a chat, read, play board games and above all make friends and connections. There will be no charge for tea/coffee, etc – a small donation would be appreciated (but only if you can afford it) to help us keep the doors open. On a Friday afternoon from 2-4pm our crafty volunteers Claire and Lynette will run the Craft Club. This will be a great place for everyone to meet, chat and be creative. The Craft Club will be a Knit & Natter style group most weeks, where you bring your own project. On selected weeks the Centre crafty volunteers will provide and guide you on a small craft project. Tea & Coffee included. Admission by donation – minimum £1 please to help cover costs. Claire will also have her Crafty Mammy shop at the centre every Friday afternoon, 2-4pm or by appointment on other afternoons. An extensive selection of fabric, wool, haberdashery and much more will be available. The Centre is delighted that residents, especially those who are unable to drive to other towns or shop online will now have access to craft supplies here at the centre.
