What you can do at LCH
Below you can find a selection of the activities, you can take part in at the Hub.
“Friday Film Club is such a wonderful asset to parents locally. Having somewhere we can bring our children as a treat that isn't at an expense to our family budget is invaluable. It allows us to do something as a family, socialise with others in the community and gives the kids something to look forward to. There's always such a good attendance, wonderful food for the children, and friendly volunteers.”

“[Family Feast] is somewhere nice to go for an evening out and we are taken care of and fed up well. The food is amazing and we are waited on hand and foot. I come along with my friend (we are both in our sixties) and we really enjoy it. My friend has early Alzheimer’s and often skips meals but always eats well at Family Feast. It’s nice to socialise with friends and catch up with people I know by sight but wouldn’t normally speak to.”
