Cockburnspath Village Hall
Tuesdays 11:30am to 2:30pm
Cockburnspath Village Hall Community Café has funding from local Windfarm benefits to run a subsidised café into the Summer 2024. The café runs on a Tuesday from 11.30 until 2.30. The café has commissioned Abundant Borders, a local charity that focuses on providing healthy, locally grown food, to provide soup, filled rolls and baked potatoes.
The café has already proven successful over the winter and we are pleased that it is continuing through the Spring. Part of this success will be to ensure we have enough volunteers to help run the café. If you can spare a couple of hours on a Tuesday to help please get in touch.
Payment is by donation: there are suggested donations for each item but the amount you give is completely at your discretion. Donations will go towards the costs of the cafe, including food, hire of hall, energy costs, and future café operations.

Volunteers
The Community Café relies on volunteers.
We need volunteers from 11am to 1pm and 1pm until 3pm
(10am to 2pm for food preparation), and we ask for volunteers to give us at least two hours of their time per session. We need volunteers to come in at 11am and help set up for the café, then help serve and wash-up, and for the afternoon volunteers in from 1pm, and finally to help clear up at the end of the day.
You can be involved as often as you would like.
A large part of the role will be chatting to customers and ensuring they feel welcome.
If you are interested in volunteering please email cafe@copathhall.org
