Teas and cheese at college cafe
Students at West Nottinghamshire College’s BAY6 Centre and coffee bar are getting the cups and saucers ready to take part in the ‘World’s Biggest Coffee Morning’ next week.
The centre, on Woodhouse Road, Mansfield, is preparing to host its own coffee morning from 10am-12pm on Friday (24 September) to raise funds for the Macmillan Cancer Support’s annual event.
Students will be raising funds by selling coffee, cakes and snacks and beauty therapy students from the town centre-based Academy will be coming in to offer nail-filing and painting to customers for a small sum to the charity.
A local Age Concern group from Mansfield has been invited in for the event. The group of pensioners will also stay to enjoy a lunch at the centre served by students.
There’s another opportunity for customers to sample themed meals laid on at the centre starting on the following Tuesday (28 September) as the team prepare to celebrate British Cheese Week.
Menu options on offer during British Cheese Week include broccoli and stilton soup, macaroni and cheese bake, double Gloucester and rosemary union tarlet and cheesecake.
People can just turn up although parties of eight or more are advised to book a table for Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday on 01623 413027.
The college’s BAY6 centre provides a practical training and working environment for students with learning difficulties or disabilities and the cafe is open to the public for hot and cold refreshments.
