Cafe Compton, in Easter Compton, recently celebrated its 4th Birthday!

As the founders said.....

We thought Almondsbury Parish Council would be interested to know that Café Compton turned 4 years old in July. It doesn’t seem possible that we came out of Covid lockdown all that time ago. The two dates coincide because we setup Café Compton to encourage villagers to come and socialise again in their village hall in a safe environment.

Photo of our birthday celebrations when we gave everyone a golden ticket scratch card with four main prizes to be won - M&S, John Lewis, Almondsbury Garden Centre vouchers and an M&S hamper. Every ticket won something - even if it was a free coffee or bacon bap at the next Café in September. All part of our giving back to the community.

We’ve had a musical entertainment theme going this year and at the June café, the Ukeaholics from Thornbury entertained us


Our thanks to Sandra Dawkins & Sarah Hunter, who have worked so hard to develop this valuable community resource which is enjoyed and valued by many people.
