The Café Market is a volunteer organised event whose purpose is to provide a venue for local small businesses within a friendly, bustling café atmosphere. Held in the village hall on the last Saturday of each month (except August and December) the Café Market regularly welcomes 200 visitors each month.Â
The Market does not make a profit and any surplus generated is donated to local causes and charities. Significant donations have been made to the local primary school, football and cricket clubs, food banks, St Richards Hospice, the Disaster Emergency Committee. Smaller donations have been made to the British Heart foundation, MIND and the Coach House Theatre. We aim to donate several thousand pounds each year.
The Market has two halls; the large hall hosts food stalls and the café, which has earned a reputation for the best bacon butties and high-quality cakes of which the treacle tart has become a firm favourite. The smaller hall has plants and crafts. Gentle background music is provided by Pepper Sound, making a visit a very pleasurable experience as many of our regular customers will tell you, describing it as the friendliest market they have encountered.
