Coastal Community Cupboard

Coastal Community Cupboard The Coastal Community Cupboard was launched it 2021 and is part of the Lyme Regis Development Trust. And so Coastal Community Cupboard was born!

Our purpose is to support the local community's wellbeing (physical, mental, economical) through our community projects. Coastal Community Cupboard was launched in 2021 as the home for all the wellbeing centered projects of the charity, Lyme Regis Development Trust. Although the Trust's focus is the social and economic wellbeing of the Lyme Regis, because the Trust are involved in so many differen

t areas, it felt important to provide a special umbrella for all of the initiatives that deal with aims directly. Currently we have 5 projects that sit in this area.
⭐️ The Seaside Store - our social supermarket.
⭐️ The Old School House - our community cafe.
⭐️ The Hub Warm Space - a open door session for anyone trying to manage the cost of heating their home.
⭐️ The Welcome Cafe - Lyme Regis monthly meetup to help combat loneliness and isolation.
⭐️ Cake & Cuppa - Charmouth monthly meetup to help combat loneliness and isolation. With so many projects going on, there are a lot of opportunities to get involved and be part of the community. Please download the VOLUNTEER FORM from our pinned post and send back to us at [email protected]
