More than a meal

Soul Café was set up in 2003 to serve the needs of the poor, needy and vulnerable – a purpose we continue to pursue with energy and passion doing all that we can with what we have. Today, the increasing numbers of disadvantaged people in our community need our assistance more than ever. While we feed a lot of guests in our cafe, we’re also committed to being ‘more than a meal’ and deliver a wide range of help and support to everyone that comes in.
