The Project Café is a Community Interest Company founded on
good food bringing people together. We aim to provide a shared platform, holding the interests of the people, the community and the environment at the heart.
The Project Cafe CIC has now ceased trading, however...
THE CAFE IS STILL OPEN, and will be staying open under the new and wonderful banner of Locavore CIC! Please see below's statement..
We are very excited to share some news with you all. Just before Christmas, we announced that The Project Cafe CIC is coming to an end, but we hoped that another organisation would step in and carry the project forward. And now we are delighted to let you know that the cafe will be continuing as part of Locavore! This hand-over feels like the natural and right thing to do, especially as the project café was originally begun as a collaborative, pop-up project with Locavore, alongside Tell it Slant poetry bookshop, six years ago.
We are all in agreement that the cafe runs fantastically as a warm and welcoming community space. Therefore, the cafe will continue to function in a similar way as it has been; the current wonderful team will continue, the rich community events programme will carry on, the menu and layout will not be subject to much change either. Locavore will respond to the needs of the cafe and the community as they move in. Small adjustments will be made along the way in order to maintain a thriving social enterprise.
The Project Cafe CIC will cease trading on the 29th of February 2020, and the Directors (Tiril, Eilidh and Dorian) will move on. Please note that the doors will be closed for one week (Sunday 1st - Thursday 6th March), to facilitate this transition. During this week we will work together on the handover, which will be carefully considered so that we can provide continuity and stability for the teams and the community. Please contact us if you need some more information, particularly if you host events with us and are thinking about future bookings.
Our gratitude goes out to Reuben and the rest of Locavore who have come forward to embrace the cafe and will now lead it onwards on its journey. We are also grateful for all of your support and kind encouraging words about the cafe and what it means to you! We are excited and curious about what this future might look like for the cafe, and hope that you are too!
