Warm Space – The Myrtle Café
The Myrtle Café at St Mary’s
The Myrtle Cafe began life at St Mary’s in response to the Cost-of-Living Crisis seeking to provide a warm, safe place with a friendly and inclusive welcome. People can come along on their own, or with a friend, and talk to others over refreshments. Various activities include practical tips and advice on saving energy costs and keeping safe and warm at home as well. The Café also helps signpost specialist support.
The Myrtle Café is open every Monday other than bank holidays open from Noon until 2 pm, serving tea, coffee, hot chocolate, squash, and biscuits/cake and soup and roll lunch will served from 12.30pm. There is no charge. Donations are welcome.

The Myrtle Café is registered with West Berkshire Council Cost of Living Hub.
