There are a number of people who attend our Workshop who have some experience of catering. In recent months, people who attend our workshop have been involved in the preparation of tea/coffee/drinks and snacks. (They have also been washing up and drying the dishes and generally tidying and cleaning up afterwards.) We have taken this a step further at Balmanno House by setting up a small training café, offering people attending the workshop the experience of working in a small café. (we will only have 3 - 4 small tables and seating for 12 – 16 people). People who attend The workshop and who will be working in The Café will be taking orders, serving drinks and snacks to customers (restricted initially to close family and friends and to local people and professionals who may want to offer their support in what we do.)

This will be a training exercise rather than a commercial enterprise.
