Did you know? People who volunteer regularly report higher levels of happiness and lower stress levels. Studies show that giving your time to help others can boost mood, strengthen community connections, and even improve overall wellbeing.
If you’ve ever thought about getting involved, this is your sign 💛

Our little community cafe, tucked down on Church Street means so much to so many 💛

To re-open the doors on Fridays, we are looking for a few more friendly people to join our volunteering team. If you can spare a few hours, it would mean a lot to us and the people that benefit from visiting the cafe.

If you think you could help, and would like to know more, pop in and see us on Thursday or send us a message here - [email protected] ✨

Community is at the heart of everything we do, and volunteers like these two are what makes it so special.

Thank you David and Erica for giving your time to support us and our initiatives ✨

Next up in Faces of Lyme are David and Erica Sarson—a lovely couple who are both deeply involved in the local community. David is a former Mayor of Lyme Regis and a member of the Rotary Club of Lyme Regis , while both he and Erica volunteer at The The Old School House Café and the Lyme Regis Visitor Hub .

🎉 Exciting news at the café! We’ve won a Thermomix, which will certainly make life even easier when creating all our lovely homemade goodies.

And speaking of treats… Neil’s homemade Burnt Basque Cheesecake is fresh out and won’t last long 🍰 so be sure to get down here early before it’s all gone!

We can’t wait to share more delicious bakes with you all 💛

Our office team is looking for a functional Android phone to help us with our daily charity operations!

What we're looking for:
~ A working Android smartphone (ideally from the last 4 years or so, so it runs modern apps)

~ In good condition, meaning the screen should be readable and battery will hold a charge, we don't mind the odd scratch or two.

~Unlocked to any network

If you have an old device sitting in a drawer that deserves a "second career" helping a great cause, please send us a DM or drop a comment below!

By donating a device, you're helping us keep our overhead costs low, meaning more of our funds go directly to our projects and initiatives, whilst running The Hub. Thank you in advance for any help 💙
