Community Support

Alongside the café, The Angel is a place to find company, information and a way forward. That might be an hour at the Talking Table, a pointer towards the right local service, or help getting back into work.

Everything here is open to anyone. You do not need a referral, an appointment or a reason to come in.

What it looks like

Most of what happens here starts with people simply sitting down together.
