Tea and Tarts in Easingwold Continues Thanks to Funding Boost
Tea and Tarts happens every month at the Galtres Centre. It started with BBC Radio York’s project, which aimed to connect North Yorkshire.
Di Watkins runs the community group and explained it began as something bigger. The group wanted to keep the good times rolling and now, they have their own special name: Tea and Tarts.
It kept going strong after Covid and Di said people would be sad if it stopped. People really seem to like it a lot, and she welcomes Broadacres’ support.
The event has cake and company for everyone. They also have some fun entertainment. People even donate tasty biscuits and cakes.
Volunteers help people get there easily with transport to the center. Some attendees liked it so much they volunteer. One person said they felt cared for.
Tea and Tarts offers more than just food. The local police give crime prevention talks, and Specsavers cleans and fixes glasses. They even had a therapy pony visit. Everyone loved that surprise very much.
They also do quizzes, dancers, and magic tricks at the event. These gatherings are about more than fun; they connect people with local services.
Tea and Tarts can suggest other useful things for folks, helping with health. Doctors suggest it for lonely people and local doctors recommend Tea and Tarts to help people who feel isolated.
Broadacres’ fund helps local groups grow, supporting projects in areas where they own homes. Residents of Broadacres approve all of the grants.
