Story
Help us save Hennesey’s Coffee Shop
Hennesseys coffee shop has been running for 15 years and is a core part of the BS3 community. It’s a friendly haven for the diverse residents in Southville and Bedminster, from pensioners to the school children who visit each day to buy a hot chocolate and raid the tin of sweets he keeps for them behind the counter.
Mike has also been donating the day's leftover food to charitable causes for almost as long as the coffee shop has been in business.
Even with the unfulfilled promises of government financial assistance, Mike will be forced to permanently close his doors at the end of October.
Mike prides himself on keeping his menu prices low, to ensure food and hot drinks are accessible to members of the community on low incomes. As such, the coffee shop has been a labour of love for its customers and the local community. Mike believes that significantly hiking his prices will change the ethos of his business.
This is a fundraiser to assist Mike with the running costs of the coffee shop, which means Henneseys will be able to remain open for the next 6 months, which will buy some time for both Mike and the local community.
Please give what you can to save the BS3 institution that is Hennesseys Coffee Shop
