Good Mornings Start at Bentley Station

Pop in for a drink. Help support Bentley Green.

Tuesday–Thursday, 6.30–8.30am
Bentley Station Waiting Room

Not just for commuters!

You don’t have to be catching a train to visit us.

If you’re walking the dog, heading back from a run or cycle, returning from the school run or simply enjoying an early-morning walk, come and say hello.

You’ll find refreshments, friendly faces and a warm welcome.

Tea • Coffee • Cold drinks • Snacks

There are no fixed prices – donations are entirely at your discretion. You can donate by cash or card.

Volunteering

Could You Join Our Volunteer Team?

Bentley Station Pop-Up Cafe is run by local volunteers. As the cafe grows, we need more people to help us keep every session covered – particularly when regular volunteers are away.

Volunteering at the cafe is a simple, practical way to support Bentley Green. It is also an opportunity to meet people, enjoy a little companionship and become part of a friendly local team.

Volunteers help to:

  • Set up the cafe
  • Welcome customers
  • Serve drinks and snacks
  • Receive donations
  • Tidy everything away at the end of the session

 

Sessions run from 6.30-8.30am on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays, with two volunteers working together.

No previous cafe experience is needed. We will show you what to do, and you will work alongside another volunteer.

We would love to hear from people who can volunteer regularly. We also welcome people who may be able to provide occasional cover when members of the regular team are on holiday.

You can talk to us, ask questions or try a session before deciding whether it is right for you.

People volunteer for all sorts of reasons. You might want to:

  • Support a local fundraising effort
  • Meet more people from Bentley and the surrounding area
  • Add a friendly, purposeful activity to your week
  • Work alongside other members of the community
  • Help keep a valued local service running

 

Every session you cover makes a genuine difference.

Fundraising

What Your Donation Supports

Every donation will go towards the Bentley Green community orchard and wildflower meadow on the site of the Old Recreation Ground – a new community green space for everyone in the village to enjoy, now and into the future.

Your donation could go towards orchard trees, wildflower seed, pond restoration or other habitat improvements.

As our fundraising grows, we also hope to support other projects that benefit the village and our community.
