A little bit of history
Back in December 2017, a few member of the community got together and ran a Christmas meal for those who would be on their own over Christmas or would not be able to afford a Christmas Dinner. After this successful event, a small committee of people got together and through the Community Reuse Shop, the idea of the Fed Up Community Cafe was born.
From there The Fed Up Cafe became its own registered charity and now operates from our premises on Bridge Street, Stranraer.
We have started growing organically and listen to what the community needs, which is why we now offer additional service of the Community Larder, Mobile Meals and our Employability Learning Hub.
