About this project
Our 150-year-old building is more than a landmark — it’s a lifeline for the community. Home to a café and food bank supporting low-income families, it brings people together and provides vital help where it’s needed most. To secure its future, we will install solar panels to generate clean electricity and add insulation to cut heat loss, energy bills, and carbon emissions. These upgrades will protect the building’s historic fabric while meeting modern environmental standards. With your support, we can preserve its character, strengthen its community role, and prove even the oldest buildings can lead in tackling climate change.
