In the charity's own words

We are a small local Charity running a Charity Shop to raise funds to support the elderly in St Just and Pendeen. We were closed for some months due to the Covid lockdowns and are now open again on reduced hours. The regular monthly free lunches had to be suspended during the pandemic but hope to resume again in 2022. Our buildings are used by local groups for a small fee.
