Organiser Debbie Bridger said: ‘We have this fantastic hall and we wanted to encourage people who live in Anchorage Park, to come together and get to know one another.’

‘The first Saturday Cafe was a great success and everyone enjoyed themselves. We now plan to hold one every month.’

‘We have been so lucky and thankful, to have had the support of local supermarkets and donations from charities and residents and this has helped us to turn an idea into a reality.’

The cafe is run by volunteers and funded by donations.
