Thirst Youth Cafe Our vision is to engage, encourage and empower the young people & youth culture of Bishop's Stortford and the surrounding areas. To us, young people matter.

Our hub is the Thirst Youth Cafe which is open to all young people aged 11-18 at 76 South Street, Bishop's Stortford CM23 3AZ Thirst is a cafe specifically for the young people of Bishop's Stortford. A venue on the high street that is funky, cool, inviting and fresh that offers free entry and serves hot and cold food and drink at reasonable prices. It is a place where you can come and simply 'be yourself;' a home from home. A place for young people to build community, develop relationships and seek help and advice should they want or need it. We believe that young people are important and valuable to this community and want to help change the negative perception of them in this culture. At Thirst, you'll find X-box Series X, Nintendo Switch, charging points, table tennis, pool, darts, board games, snacks, milkshakes, youth volunteering opportunities and much more!! Bishop's Stortford Youth Project Ltd, trading as Thirst Youth Cafe, is a company registered in England and Wales with the number 08407987. Our registered address is The Charis Centre, Water Lane, Bishop's Stortford, CM23 2JZ.

We had a brilliant time this week with session one of our animation workshops in the bag! There was some brainstorming for story and character ideas, including some reflections on the history of Bishop's Stortford, experimenting with mixed media collage and some first stage animation work. It's great fun so come along to the next session on Tuesday 2nd November 4pm and get involved!

ANIMATION PROJECT STARTING NEXT TUESDAY (27th October) and running for six weeks. Come along to as many or as few as you like. Bring a story and characters to life with stop-motion animation! With the help from professional writers and artists, you’ll work with other young people to design, draw, and animate, creating a short film from start to finish! All are welcome to attend our FREE workshops, during our drop in sessions at Thirst Youth Cafe, 76 South street, Bishop’s Stortford. It's going to be awesome!
