Journey through the Cwtch

There’s space for you here.
Whether you’re here to eat, make, rest, dream, or start again — we’ve got a seat at the table, a place by the kettle and a whole community that wants YOU to win.

01

You walk in Hungry...

The Cwtch Kitchen
A kettle’s boiling. The soup’s hot. Someone’s offering a smile with your pastry.
We serve affordable meals every day. Our pay-what-you-feel meal model means no one goes hungry, and no one feels shamed.

Pastries & Soup, Every Day
If all you need is a warm bowl and a quiet place to breathe — that’s enough. It’s always free and always accessible

Kindness Vouchers
We sell gift vouchers and share with charirties to ensure those in need can access a hot meal without the stigma.

Fighting Food Waste with Imagination
We cook creatively using surplus ingredients and teach how to stretch a meal without stretching your wallet.

02

You Stay for the warmth...

A Space for Gathering
Community starts when people have somewhere to gather. Our venue is open to ideas and open to everyone. From coffee mornings and birthday dinners to gig nights and grassroots meetings.

Workshops for the Soul
We host regular art, craft, poetry, music, and movement sessions. Led by local makers, movers, and storytellers. No experience needed. Just curiosity.

The Book Swap Shelf

Take a book, leave a book or just read quietly in the corner. No memberships. No due dates. Just stories finding new homes.

Clubs & Socials

We believe fun is radical, play is powerful and connection doesn’t always need a clipboard. Our games and socials are about making space for joy. Shared, simple, and slightly chaotic. From Chess socials and lego builds to Quiz nights and book clubs. You'll always be welcomed.

Fancy Dress & Uniform Bank
Need a school uniform or fancy dress outfit? Got one to pass on? Our free uniform and outfit bank helps families while reducing waste and cost.

03

You Find your Spark...

Live Events & Exhibitions
From open mics to spoken word nights, local art shows to late-night improv, we showcase the raw, the brilliant and the unexpected.

Web3 & Digital Creatives
We’re not just analogue dreamers. We offer space, meetups, and collabs for NFT artists, digital creators and the Web3-curious, because community and technology can dance together.

04

You Take a Leap...

The Food & Drink Incubator
Got a product, a vision or a food idea bubbling away? We offer real-world startup support, mentoring, advice and a shot at making it real.

Rent-a-Shelf
Try retail without the big leap. We give makers and micro-brands a platform to sell in our community shop — low risk, high vibes.

Monthly Markets
Our Sunday markets celebrate local producers, crafters, artists and foodies — it’s business meets festival, every month.

05

We Cheer you on...

The Newton Abbot Business & Community Awards
Each year we recognise the legends, doers, dreamers, and changemakers of this town. It’s our way of saying:

"We see you. And you’re smashing it."
