The Putney Pantry will have a 'Chatter & Natter' table on Tuesdays and Thursdays

The Putney Wellbeing Friends, are supporting a new scheme originally started in the North of England now spreading across the UK with the aim to reduce loneliness and get people talking.

The Chatty Café Scheme encourages cafes to have a 'Chatter & Natter' table which is where customers can sit if they are happy to talk to other customers. A Chatter & Natter table is for anyone... if a person is on their own, in a couple, with friends, if someone is a carer they could sit there with who they care for, people with babies, professionals, young people, older people and anyone in between!

The Putney Pantry at St Mary's Church has enthusiastically embraced the idea and, from next week, will be offering a Chatter & Natter table on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons 2.30pm to 4.30pm.
