Activities

For the month of July, Chess Night will be held in the cafe.

Come along to our friendly Chess Night for some games of chess. All levels and ages are welcome and you don't have to have a chess partner to join in. 

Feel free to bring along your own chess board if it is easily portable. Grab some tasty refreshments from the cafe and play away! 

For the month of July, Boar Games will be held in the cafe.

Do you love playing board games? If so, come along on a Friday night and try out our games selection or bring your own favourite and teach us. It’s a great place for people who enjoy meeting friends, family, new folk or colleagues to share fun.

So far we’ve tried classics like dominoes and backgammon and some new ones like:

- Rummikub: Tile combinations are placed on a board with the goal of being the first player to run out of tiles

- Bananagrams: a word game where lettered tiles are used to spell words

- Exploding Kittens: A card game with kittens, explosions, laser beams and sometimes goats!

- Pandemic: A cooperative board game based on the premise that four diseases have broken out in the world, each threatening to wipe out a region

Also look out for:

- Miniature wargaming: players enact battles between opposing military forces that are represented by miniature physical models

- Ticket to Ride: Build tracks between cities before others block the way

- Sequence: an abstract strategy board-and-card game

Enjoy a great start to the week with our Chair-based Exercise sessions - a yoga-based activity set to music.

The class is run by an experienced yoga instructor – Emma Burtles – providing a gently stimulating exercise session to help keep body and mind active with all the associated physical and social benefits.

Attended by a friendly group of mainly senior citizens – men & women – all ages are welcome. We try to make transport available to help make sure everyone who needs a lift is able to attend through our local community volunteer network.

Held in the cinema auditorium for the month of July, which is fully accessible.

Which do you prefer? To read the book then watch the film… or the other way round?

Join in the chat with our Book & Film Blethers group to see a film screening based on a novel or short story followed by an informal discussion over a drink on the second Thursday of every month. All welcome!
