A cafe has opened in Newtownabbey this week to provide a meeting point for the local community.
The owners of Ten Coffee on the Jordanstown Road, friends Alison Johnston and Sarah Reed, were heartbroken when their favourite coffee shop announced it was closing a few months ago. The pair were regulars, often popping in on their regular walks during lockdown.
They initially joked about setting up their own cafe in the spot before deciding to turn this thought into a reality. Despite challenges posed for businesses by the current cost of living crisis, they said it was important to them to keep a spot open to support the area.
