Things you might not know happen at Pendennis… 👀

Someone comes in for their first-ever class and leaves feeling a little more confident.

Someone else pops in for a coffee and ends up chatting to someone they haven’t seen for ages.

A dog gets a run around while its owner enjoys a cuppa.

A book gets picked up from the shelf, read and passed on to someone else.

People who didn’t know each other a few months ago become familiar faces.

And every now and then, someone walks through the door having a difficult day and leaves feeling just a little bit better.

None of these things are really on the timetable.

But perhaps they’re some of the most important things that happen here. ❤️

That’s community, really.

A day in the life of a volunteer ☕️

9am. Gates open. Shutters up. We’re off.

First job? Get the coffee on. ☕️

Then a quick check of the fridges and loos, put the cakes out, make sure everything is looking shipshape and wait for the first familiar faces to arrive.

“Morning!”

“Coffee?”

Before long, the centre starts to fill up. People arriving for yoga, Pilates, Spin, Tone Zone and all the other classes happening throughout the day.

There’s always a bit of chatting, a bit of laughing and usually someone who needs a hand with something.

And then, somewhere along the way, comes the all-important shout:

“We’re running low on milk!”

Or…

“Has anyone seen the blue tissue?”😂

That’s really what volunteering here is about.

Making sure the doors are open, the kettle is on and everyone who walks through them feels welcome.

And honestly? It’s a pretty lovely way to spend a morning. ❤️

Fancy being part of the team? We’re always happy to hear from people who’d like to volunteer at Pendennis.

Have you heard? It's National Kiss and Make Up Day today! 💛

So if you've had a little falling out, crossed words, or there's someone you've been meaning to call, maybe today is the day to put things right.

Why not invite them for a catch-up over a brew and a slice of cake? ☕🍰 Sometimes a good chat across a café table can work wonders.

Our café is open from 9am to 1pm, with plenty of tea, coffee, cake and a warm welcome waiting for you.

Who knows? By the time the kettle's boiled and the cake's disappeared, you might both be smiling again.

🙌 Could you spare a couple of hours to help out ?

We’re looking for volunteers to help man the front desk from 5:00–7:30pm on Mondays or Thursdays.

It’s a lovely, quiet shift, and there’s no need to make hot drinks. ☕️🚫 So if you’re a student looking for somewhere peaceful to sit and study while helping out, or you simply have a couple of hours to spare, this could be just the thing.

You’d be helping to welcome people into the Centre, be a friendly face at the desk and keep an eye on things while the evening activities are taking place.

It’s just a couple of hours, and a nice way to be part of what’s happening at the Community Centre. 💚

📩 Interested?
Send us a message at [email protected]
or pop in and have a chat with us.

We’d love to hear from you!
