Friends of Hardie Park
We are a community cafe offering light snacks coffees, ice-cream and company, situated in Hardie Park, Stanford le Hope. The cafe space is used for many groups with clubs and activities for all generations. Craft/Cribbage/Book Club/Petanque/Walkers/Gardeners/Knitters. We run a community pop-up project where our volunteers collect surplus food daily from local supermarkets and offer to the community from 11am in the cafe. We never know what, or how much we are going collect, it is offered on a take what you need, donate if you can basis. See you soon!
