News from Pavillion Cafe
Most people on Meon Vale – and many in the surrounding villages – know The Pavilion Café.
But you might not know that we’re also a local charity supporting community groups and running a food share for families who need a little extra help.
Like many charities across the country, we’re currently facing a serious funding challenge. We rely almost entirely on café income and the kindness of local supporters to keep these community services going.
From November last year, we were required to register for VAT. Sadly, there are no exemptions for charities, and this has added a significant financial burden that now puts our long-term future at risk.
The good news? You can help in a really simple way.
If a few more residents popped in for a coffee or a slice of cake, it would make a huge difference.
We offer:
☕ Drinks, homemade cakes and hot food
🥡 Takeaway (including hot food)
🐕 A dog-friendly outdoor terrace
🪑 A warm, welcoming place to enjoy a quiet moment
If you’re able to support us — even just once a week — you’ll be helping us survive and grow, so we can continue supporting people in and around Meon Vale.
Thank you, from our trustees, staff and volunteers.
Your support truly keeps us going 💙
News from Meon Vale Village Hall
