By Julie | Canteen leader
After 15 months away from our guests it is with great pleasure we can annouce that we are re-opening our very first community canteen.
IT'LL BE DIFFERENT OF COURSE.
We've had to limit the amount of people to 20 and our volunteers to 6. We'll be doing table service for food and tea as well as checking temperatures on arrival. But at the end of the day we'll all be sat together to enjoy companionship and a hot meal - which will be joyus.
We'll still be delivering to 75 households across the brorough some groceries and a hot meal and slowly we hope to bring people back to face to face meetings as the rules relax and more people are vaccinated.
It's been a difficult year overall, we've lost a few friends, we've lost a lot of income but we haven't lost our anticipation and appetite for this day.
Wish us luck as we venture forward with tomorrow
