On the 2nd Thursday of each month.
The Rainbow Café at St Mary's Church opens its doors again on Thursday, the 8th of May, between 2:00pm and 4:30pm.
As usual, we will be offering delicious cakes and savouries.
We will have our fantastic kid's snack deal - 5 items and a drink for £1. Where else would you get such wonderful value?
There will be crafts, a story for the children, and a warm welcome for everyone.
This all helps us support 4 children in Uganda to go to school and supply breakfast for a group of Ugandan children at their Saturday Club. How special is that?
Come and join us.

The Gabriel team has gained access to their printing and collating machines and are cautiously optimistic that normal production and door-to-door deliveries can resume with effect from the May issue.
Editor Dave Candy would like this month's parish magazine to reach the residents, and we are pleased to help by making it available to read online.
Could you volunteer to help produce The Gabriel?
Please read the April edition online to find out how you can help the team.
