Have you ever been down to the wonderful café at the Waterside Centre Newbury? ☕

The centre organises a huge range of activities and support for young people, but did you know it isn't run by the local authority?

It's actually operated by the Berkshire Youth charity, and the café is a great way to help directly support and fund all the work they do!

It's a great spot for a catch up with friends or a business meeting, so next time you head into town, why not treat yourself to a coffee and a cake - supporting young people while you do it 🙏

This is welcome, albeit long overdue. Berkshire has so much to offer to visitors as well as residents. Not least a moderate microclimate, lots of beautiful walks, the best food and drink, castles and stately homes to remind us of our history.

Windsor and the Royal Borough of Windsor & Maidenhead are at the heart of a new Berkshire-wide partnership that has achieved accreditation as a Local Visitor Economy Partnership (LVEP) from VisitEngland this winter.
