A community cafe in Swansea has been praised for offering free three-course meals every week to anyone who needs them. Phoenix Cafe at The Phoenix Centre in Townhill offers a "safe, welcoming space to share food and conversation" and is now serving up free meals every Monday evening.
The cafe, run in partnership with FoodCycle Swansea, aims to help strengthen the local community and "enhance the health and mental wellbeing of people from all backgrounds and walks of life," while ensuring no-one goes without a hot, nutritious meal.
The 'free dinner on Mondays' scheme started earlier this month and saw 25 happy guests at its launch night on May 9. Kind-hearted volunteers cooked up a storm with a spiced cauliflower soup, vegetable chilli and rice, and a lemon drizzle cake. For more Swansea stories, sign up to our newsletter.
