Meet the team

Our dedicated team of staff supports our volunteers to provide emergency food and practical support to people who have been left without enough money to live on.

Our café is run by husband and wife team, Andy & Cheri along with their amazing team of volunteers and have brought it on since it’s conception in 2018.

Andy & Cheri have many years of hospitality experience, including training and business management. This allows them to operate a café helping people who have barriers to employment, teaching them a trade to be able to be confident in finding work. In addition, the café offers a warm welcome to all of our service users needing to use the cafe for a bite to eat, a nice chat or to come in to get out of the cold.
