Our Love Aldwick Community Cafe is now open.
Tuesday 7th September 2021 – A new beginning. There was a real buzz about the place – a delicious smell of coffee and a lovely atmosphere. It was the first day of the new “Love Aldwick” Community Café run by Perrie Sims and her enthusiastic team, and 32 people (some already known to the church) and a number of new folk came together to enjoy one another’s company, sitting in groups around some tables and sitting on some colourful chairs.

There’s a lot of bad news, loneliness and heartache around and ABC simply want to bring a little of the sunshine of God’s love into the dark corners of life. As Perrie said “We just want to share and enjoy one another’s company and make a difference”. The Café only charges £1 per head but also sells yummy cakes and as it moves forward it will be seeking to share any profits and/or make donations to local charities. The Love Aldwick Café will run every Tuesday morning from 10am to 12 noon. There will also be occasional games, quizzes and guest presenters whilst the church will also be continuing to run a regular Luncheon Club and Craft Group and West Meads café followed soon by a “Toddler Time” and “Messy Church”.
