Company activities and impact

Each Monday evening, we have an evening solely designated for children with autism, additional needs, and social anxiety. The purpose of the group is to allow children that would otherwise feel anxious and nervous in ordinary social settings to be able to mingle and make new friends. We have a very relaxed evening where children can attend 5pm-7pm with their parents/care givers to come down and play on a quiet environment where they can just be themselves. This is also an opportunity for the parents to be able to meet other parents and discuss strategies, opportunities and just make friends without worrying that their child is not safe. We also have an adult version of the group once a month on a Tuesday evening for people who are on the autistic spectrum or ADHD to meet new friends, to offer each other peer to peer support. There is a topic of discussion every month. On Tuesday we host a local history group to encourage people to investigate the history of the town, this group is mainly attended by the older generation, who spend time meeting new friends, friends from old that they may not have seen or heard from in decades. To have access to reading and research material and guidance and support to access additional services at the libraries across the town. This consists of a two hour talk on a certain aspect of the town’s history. Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday evening are the pen and paper games of Dungeons and Dragons, which encourages imagination and problem-solving skills. This activity is an evening activity for those that may have social anxiety, mental health issues, and loneliness. We also, have a considerable amount of people attend these gaming evenings from the autistic, disabled and LGBTQ+ community as it is a safe space where they are fully accepted and may not feel confident to go to louder, crowded and more noisy environments. Throughout the daytime, during cafe opening hours, we offer free room hire in our overflow room for various practitioners of well-being and health to use for the benefit of the customers, this ranges from well-being and health services to sustainability and climate sessions, to toddler and baby groups. We have a sensory garden for children to enjoy outside time in a safe and confined space where they can play freely with their parents, the garden was used extensively over the pandemic for those that had been shielding at home and didn’t feel comfortable eating in an indoor setting. We added a sensory room to the cafe for a space for people with sensory issues, it is also used a quiet space for people to escape the hustle bustle of life and to get some ‘me time’ where they can be alone. The sensory room is free for all customers to use during opening hours.
