COMMUNITY
Inspirational Community Kindness I
f you’re looking for a relaxing place to enjoy a cuppa, connect with friendly likeminded people and try new activities, then The Shoebox Community Hub (formerly KindaKafe) in Norwich city centre is a great place to start. The Shoebox is a community hub offering volunteer opportunities, community support, group facilities and events, with a focus on tackling loneliness and isolation. There is an active user network and we are firmly established as an inspirational hub for local kindness. Our community lounge is the perfect place to enjoy a good book, meet with friends, connect with fellow members and make use of our free wifi to catch up on your projects. If you fancy a cuppa, just help yourself to a great selection of teas and freshly brewed coffee from our refreshment counter. You may even find a homemade cake or two
baked by our lovely volunteers! Just pop a donation in our honesty box. The Shoebox is also home to the famous Hidden History of Norwich Tours. The revenue from these tours supports the work we do at our community hub, building communities and reducing loneliness, so a big thank you from us for your support. Our ‘hidden street’ tour takes you on a journey down two flights of stairs beneath The Shoebox venue. You can explore the layers of architecture dating from the 15th Century, nestled below Castle Meadow, and discover the past of our Fine City. On our Tombland Walking tour, you will see Norwich’s history of Romans, rioters and rebels, priors, friars and preachers come to life. With a mix of tales, true accounts and local legends, this 90-minute walking tour will help you discover the Norwich you never noticed.
