WONSTON Community Café has raised £330 for Citizens Advice in Winchester this month.
Representatives from Citizens Advice attended the café, and set up a stall in the foyer, showing the types of help on offer. The ladies also spoke to several café visitors about specific issues.
The next Wonston Community Café will be at the Victoria Hall, Sutton Scotney, from 9.30am to 12noon on Wednesday, May 15 supporting Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance.
Using both a helicopter and emergency response vehicle, the Charity brings a team of highly skilled pre-hospital emergency medicine doctors and specialist paramedics to the scene of an incident, effectively bringing the hospital to the patient when time is critical. According to the charity it costs approximately £15,000 a day to maintain the service.
The community café sells a range of homemade cakes, alongside tea and coffee. Free parking is available. The café is cash only.
