Here is somewhere in the village of Bassingbourn offering free refreshments and a good old chat about all kinds of things that people love to talk about.

We are also the Hub for Cambridgeshire ACRE on these days and can point you in the direction of where to get all kinds of assistance with GP surgery hours, pension/credit advice and help, bus timetables and anything that helps everyone to live well in Bassingbourn and the surrounding villages.
