Nest Cafe's 1st anniversary and how it's going from strength to strength

It's been just over a year since the Nest café opened its doors under the shadow of the ecology centre. The café, part of a larger social enterprise called the ecology centre, was created to make a difference in the lives of young people living in poverty or facing other challenges in their lives.

In that short time, the Nest café has become much more than just a place to grab a coffee or a bite to eat. It's become a community gathering space where people can come together to connect, learn and grow.

How The Nest café is making a difference in the community

The Nest Café is a social enterprise that provides training and employment opportunities for individuals who face barriers to work. Located in the heart of the ecology centre, they are open Thursday to Monday with takeaway drinks, ice cream etc., available seven days per week. They come with a new mission to provide a supportive environment where individuals can learn new skills and gain the experience they need to improve their outlook on life and future job prospects.
