Yesterday, it was our great pleasure to welcome 30 of our Tuesday group back to lunch club HoveMethodists. It was emotional and very hard to resist the urge to hug everyone. Some new guests & new volunteers, & we thought often of our much loved Jimbo #Community

Thank you Co-op community fund & friends of Food and Friendship who choose us as their local good cause. Here's Nick, Blatchington rd & me. Blown away by the amount gathered last year from all those 1ps in the £1. Hope to fund raise too for our Wed budget cooking clubs #community

Was such a treat to spend time at @FoodFriendship today, serving food to guests and chatting.
And where better to watch the historic events of today unfold than with the residents who are most affected by choices made in Downing Street.

@HoveMethodists Thanks all & @peterkyle & @chrishenryman for helping today with serving, the raffle & chatting with the guests. What timing for their visit - we watched the news live! We are having a break next week but are back on Tuesday 1st November- see you then! #Community

Off for some lunch. We've still got a few loaves, bagels and cinnamon buns left for this afternoon though. Why not swing by on the way to pick up the kids from school and grab something deliciously bready.
