Groups and Activities
'VERY CHATTY CAFE'
Very Chatty Cafe offers a warm space, friendship, a community atmosphere and anyone is welcome. Some say it is an ever-expanding family.
We meet in the Belmont Centre on the second and last Fridays of the month, excluding August, 10.30 until 12.45, providing refreshments mid-morning followed by a hot meal at 12.15pm. We include a generous raffle, a quiz, activities, jigsaws, a book swap, and we celebrate birthdays.
In the winter months of January, February and March, we meet every Friday with coffee and cake at 10.00 until 12.00 noon on the intervening Fridays, to enable friendship, warmth and conversation to be shared. If any of our regular members are unwell and can't attend, we try to deliver a gift or arrange a visit.
We have special events, special speakers, mark notable calendar dates and provide a programme of our dates and events, copies of which are in the foyer of the Belmont Centre. If you wish you can arrive, sit, enjoy the refreshments, and relax or bring your knitting, crochet or your companion dog.
Why not join us at our next big event at The Vintage Tea Room at Uckfield Spring Festival, on the Luxford Field on May 10th, 10am until 4.0m? We plan to hold a Garden Party on 21st June in a glorious garden at Ringles Cross. We have taken part in the Children's Parade at the Uckfield Carnival in the past two years and hope to again this year (a second childhood?) We also provide an exhibition as part of the Holy Cross Festival of Christmas Trees.
