Our cafè aims to help youth combat social isolation and loneliness through befriending programmes and activities. The cafè serves as a moderated, safe space for youth to interact with others from different schools and backgrounds. This allows youth to gain new perspectives and a broader outlook on the world, while combatting loneliness through newfound friendships.
