Story
We are beginning an exciting new project and need some support to get this up and running. We have just signed a 3 year lease for Our Dry Bar/Recovery Community Café which will be opening soon on Heath Road, Ashton-in-Makerfield. This will be open 7 days a week from 9am-10pm.
Our vision is to provide a safe and supportive community for everyone to come along for a chat, a meal, and some fun. By hosting themed evenings, movie nights, open mic nights, and other activities we aim to create a fun environment unique to anything within the area.
The building we have secured needs a little TLC therefore we are hoping to receive help with creating a friendly look inside the café. As well as financial support we are hoping to gain some donations of furniture, and anything else that could help alongside donations of time to make this a real community project.
If you are able to donate time by volunteering, possibly provide materials such as MDF, Paint or vouchers such as B&Q, Homebase, Wilkinsons. IKEA etc so we can buy the products we require. If you can support with any materials for our proposed kitchen garden, such as wooden pallets, topsoil, planters. plants and seeds etc. We are grateful for any donations received in kind or financially.
Thank you from all the team
