Since we launched the Coffee Shop in 2011 we have gone from strength to strength with a small number of willing volunteers, student help in the holidays and two weekend paid staff.
More help is needed at the Coffee Shop – although the school holidays are covered very effectively by the paid supervisors, there is always a need for more volunteers for term-times when the weekend staff aren’t available and also to provide support during the summer months.
Read what some of our volunteers have to say. People volunteer at the Coffee Shop for a number of reasons
Helpers all enjoy volunteering and meeting really nice customers who come along and enjoy our picnic areas whilst watching their children play on the well equipped outdoor play areas, including from our decking area adjacent to the Coffee Shop.

The menu is being extended all the time and there are frequent compliments on the quality of the range. You can purchase anything from 10p biscuits and 20p lollipops to a wide range of coffees and home made cakes. In addition to our paninis, we’ve introduced a range of sandwiches, made to order, and popular snacks.
The Coffee Shop is also now recognised as a bike friendly venue by the national Cycle Touring Club (CTC) – see
