Meeting: 07/12/2015 - Brinnington & Reddish Joint Ward Committee (Item 9)

Brinnington Pop Up Cafe

To consider a presentation from Brinnington Pop Up Café.

Minutes:

Mary Dutton (Brinnington Pop Up Café) attended the meeting to explain to the committee the current challenges facing the café.

 

Brinnington Pop Up Café offered a low-cost option for residents and over 500 people per week used the café which was considered a “community hub”. Profits made were funnelled back into the community through funding of community events and volunteers in the café were trained in Level 2 Food Safety & Hygiene and aided into paid employment. The café was facing closure at Christmas due to the requirement of planning permission and it was hoped that the café could find a new location.

 

RESOLVED – That Mary be thanked for her attendance.
