In the charity's own words
Our purpose is to provide a welcoming place for the people of Broughton. The setting is a well-presented coffee shop run by around 20 volunteers. We are primarily a meeting place in the community, especially those who are lonely or in need, and host regular activities for a number of groups. The shop acts as an outlet for the Aylesbury Trussell Trust food bank .
