Just a few things happening soon:

Tuesday 28 is our Men’s Cafe 10-1.30pm where you can come & chat, browse the books, play board games or dominoes or join in making Swift Boxes.

At 1.30pm the session is opened up to everyone to come & enjoy a talk on swifts and boxes will be available to take away.

On Friday 31st July we have our late night opening - the menu looks scrumptious! This month we have the whole Hub open - an exhibition upstairs, Steve Taylor’s Art Studio is open, Christine Rose is in the shop with her woodblocks - you can meet the artists and have a go as well as browse our shop, stocked with lots of lovely makes from local artisans.

You need to book the cafe for a table if you want to eat otherwise everything is free!

See you there!

Thanks to Bells from The Alchemist's Satchel for making The Appleby Hub smell gorgeous.
We had a candle workshop and our ladies created their signature scents then chose three to add to their trio of candles. Bells shared her knowledge and they are away on their candle making journey to make many more!
