Crowborough Community Coming Together

The residents are trying to save a recently closed coffee shop

Residents in Crowborough are campaigning and trying to raise funds to keep one of the towns beloved coffee shops open.

They have opened a Go Fund Me page to raise funds.

Here is what they had to say.

"Over the past few weeks, our beloved coffee shop, Jarvis Brew, has been closed as Gary, the heart and soul of the café, has been seriously ill in hospital. While he focuses on his recovery, we, his customers and friends, want to ensure that his business is here waiting for him when he’s ready to return.

Gary is one of our community’s unsung heroes. He’s the kind of person who never hesitates to lend a hand, whether it’s offering a free coffee or snack to someone in need or stepping up to help others in ways big and small. Now, it’s our turn to support him.

Gary would never ask for help himself (he struggles even asking people for the time!), but without our collective effort, Jarvis Brew may not survive this difficult time. To cover two months of rent, stock, and bills, we’re aiming to raise £6,000. This will allow Gary to recover without the added stress of losing his livelihood and ensure that we can all look forward to his delicious coffees, tiffins, and curries in the new year.

Every little bit helps, and any support you can give would mean the world to Gary and everyone who loves Jarvis Brew. Together, let’s show him the power of community and give him the peace of mind he needs to get better.

Thank you so much in advance for your kindness and generosity"
