Derry Meetups festive morning of connection, community and giving back
Local businesses are being urged to contribute to the charity raffle
This December, Derry Meetups is hosting a unique Christmas coffee morning, blending a festive 'Offline Café' event with vital fundraising efforts for local families in need. The initiative supports two crucial local causes, the Foyle Foodbank and the FWIN (Foyle Women's Information Network) Toy Drive.
Everyone is invited to gather for a morning of connection and giving back at the Hang Ten Brew Bar, aiming to help provide much-needed toys and food this Christmas.
The coffee morning takes place on Sunday, December 14 at Hang Ten Brew Bar, Strand Road from 11.00am – 1.30pm. Admission is £10 (includes the first drink).
In line with the 'Offline Café' style, attendees are encouraged to switch off their phones and enjoy a relaxed atmosphere. Attendees are invited to bring along board games, card games, puzzles, or creative projects like knitting or art to enjoy with others.
The event will feature a charity raffle with prizes donated by local businesses, and attendees will have the opportunity to hear directly from both charities about their critical work during the festive season.
Local businesses are being urged to contribute to the charity raffle. Organisers are requesting donations of products, gift cards, or services to be used as raffle prizes. Businesses wishing to participate can drop off their contributions at the Hang Ten Brew Bar at 10.00am on Saturday, December 14.
In return for their generosity, contributing businesses will benefit from: Promotion across Derry Meetups' social media channels; The opportunity to distribute leaflets or tasters at the associated Charity Christmas Coffee Morning; A dedicated shoutout during the event; and increased visibility to new customers while making a real difference supporting the local community.
Tickets for the event are available for purchase through the Derry Meetups website.
