Covid safety info – how we keep our performances and events safe for you
Visit community pantry to collect pay-as-you-feel groceries, chilled meals, warm clothes and toiletries all by donation, to help folks during pandemic times. We are also open for takeaway hot drinks and vegan cakes during these times and run regular community cafe events where you can enjoy tasty vegan food on a pay-as-you-feel basis.
You can support our community pantry by paying forward hot drinks, groceries and meals.
