Company activities and impact

The Forge Cafe is a community focused project operating in the centre of Lutterworth with a focus on supporting young people with learning disabilities to gain both personal and hospitality skills through an internship opportunity.

The Forge Cafe is attached to Lutterworth Church and has a connection with their charitable arm- 'Churchgate' we intend to work closely with the church. The community will benefit by having somewhere to go for a cup of coffee where they are able to talk to other likeminded parents or carers with shared experiences.
