Bric-a-Brac<br />

People often donate things to us so we can sell them on our volunteering Wednesdays, a Friday<br />

when we open, or at our coffee mornings. We often sell quite a lot, and one lady donated some<br />

handmade cards for us to sell. There is also a bookshelf in the Hub to either buy or exchange a book,<br />

or just read one over a coffee.<br />

Coffee Mornings<br />

Now we’ve had the Community Hub renovated, we have started hosting coffee mornings every third<br />

Saturday of the month, which we advertise by putting posters on social media and in shops. At the<br />

coffee mornings, we give a suggested donation price for tea, coffee, cake, toast, and other items we<br />

sell that people donate such as knitted poppies and headbands. We also bought some local Barnsley<br />

honey, which didn’t make it to our first coffee morning as everybody bought one. We aim to re-stock<br />

this honey as it was a great success! We also aim to have more events now that the Hub is up and<br />

running, and plan to continue our annual carol service which also raises funds.
