and live on Freeview channel 276
The events have been running at the Byron’s Rest on Baker Street after being started up by landlord Richard Darrington and Jan Lees co-manager at the Hope Lee project.
The coffee mornings, which take place on the first Friday of each month at 9.30am, provide an opportunity to lonely people and residents who live on their own to come and have a cuppa and a chat.
