🌸 Spring Planning – We’d Love Your Input! 🌸

As we get ready to reopen this spring, we’re dreaming up new coffee & tea options, sweet treats, and savoury snacks—and we want your voice at the table.

And tell us…
✨ What would you love to see us carry?
✨ What feels missing in Chester?
✨ What would make our little café and shop a place you’d linger a little longer?

As a social enterprise, every idea helps us create meaningful, inclusive employment and fair wages for adults with intellectual disabilities—so your input truly matters.

We can’t wait to welcome you back and build something special together 💙
