Preparations are in place for Headingley cafe to re-open after being closed for nearly 5 months
21 Co, a shop and cafe in Leeds who offer work opportunities for people who have Down syndrome, closed on 15th March due to COVID-19.
Staff were not sure whether the cafe would re-open this year but after many discussions and a re-organisation of the shop floor, it looks likely 21 Co. will resurface in September.
The shop & café will operate as “take out” only with a limited number of customers allowed in the shop at all times. Makers gifts will be available to purchase as well as hot & cold drinks and some food items.
The café looks to re-open once fully deep-cleaned, re-organised and when additional staff training is completed.
Keep up to date with 21 Co. and follow them on social media to find out their official opening date.
