Coffee and Collections
Join our friendly fortnightly group for a morning of discovery and conversation. Each session, we’ll explore a fascinating new part of the collection — uncovering stories, surprises, and hidden gems — before relaxing together in the café over coffee and great company.
This new group was inspired by our popular Focus On sessions, where we noticed a wonderful community of friends forming week after week. Now, we’re building on that energy to create something special — a space to combat social isolation, spark curiosity, and bring like-minded people together.
