Well, it’s hard to believe Christmas is upon us and the festive season is in full swing. It’s also amazing that Village Vibes has been opening on Friday afternoons for a year, and it’s been a great one. Thank you all for coming along to support us, we love seeing you and it’s wonderful to see the friendships made and the wonderful community spirit that thrives every week.
Our last café of the year is on 12th December, and our community bus service will be running on this day. If you know anyone who would like to come along but has difficulty in getting here, please mention our bus service. We have a slightly revised schedule which is shown below. This is a hail and ride service too so please do wave at the driver and he will pick you up wherever you are along the route.

As you are aware, earlier in the summer, we were raising funds for Limelight, which is a youth theatre group, attended by many of our local young people. We were able to make a donation to help them put on their recent show, Legally Blonde. A few members of our team went along to watch the performance which was absolutely brilliant. Well done to everyone involved in this production, you are all amazing.
Our café dates for the New Year are:
January 2026, 16th and 30th February, 13th and 27th
We then revert to weekly opening in March.
From all of the café team, we wish you a very Happy Christmas, and a wonderful New Year, enjoy your time with family and friends, make memories and we look forward to seeing you all in 2026.
