Blend is our pop-up café, open every Wednesday during term time between 4:00 and 6:00pm in St Mary's Church, Goudhurst for young people in school years 7 to 10.

Offering a space to spend time with local friends, both new and old in a safe and welcoming hub in the village. There is so much to do including chilling, table tennis, games, music, craft activities, playing on the Wii and even the chance to catch up on homework with a great team of leaders who are willing to help and support the young people who come each week.

We know the children are often very hungry after school so we are so pleased to be able to serve milkshakes and cakes once again!

There is a £1 entry fee, and then everything is free.
