Memory Lane Cafe Halifax – Change of Venue

/ North Halifax Partnership / Leave a comment

Our Halifax cafe has been running at Boothtown Methodist Church since 2021. All of our cafes have been getting much busier this year so we have decided to relocate to the Maurice Jagger Centre from the start of September. We are very grateful to the lovely people at Boothtown & Southowram Methodist Church for allowing us to use their building for the past year –  they enabled us to run extra cafe sessions during the long months of COVID restrictions.

Aside from the new location we will also be changing the days on which we meet (the cafe will run on 1st & 3rd Mondays of each month).

Please see flyer showing full details for the rest of 2022
