As well as community activities, a whole range of local agencies also use The Community Hub as the place to provide their services.

Every Wednesday, between 11 am and 1 pm, our Talking Café is hosted by Thrive Somerset’s Village Agent, Daniel Bell, and our Spark IT Digitial Champions.

A different service provider attends the Talking Café each week, offering free help and support on a ‘drop-in’ basis.
