Hi, my name is Ann and I am the owner of The Cracked Pot Cafe in Middleton Leeds.

In 2023 I launched a 'Pay It Forward' initiative in my cafe to try and support those that are struggling in the Middleton and surrounding communities with access to a free hot meal and drink.

The board allows customers and members of the community to pre pay for food and drinks and pop them on the board so they are available for someone who is unable to afford any.

At the moment we are struggling to keep the board full and support those that are in need.

If you can donate even a £1 this will get someone a hot drink in a warm space. Any support would be hugely appreciated.
