THE Lounge, the new community internet café in Alvechurch, had its official opening this weekend, when local MP for Bromsgrove Sajid Javid came along to declare the community project up and running.
The café which provides a meeting place for local young people, as well as clubs and organisations, and anyone who fancies a coffee and a cake, has been building up momentum over the last 18 months, with lots of support from local volunteers.
Mr Javid attended a parish council coffee morning at The Lounge on Saturday, February 12, before holding the official opening ceremony.
Organisers also invited a number of councillors, volunteers and representatives from Worcestershire Youth Service to thank them for their support in making the project a reality.
