LOCAL LINKS
Easington Colliery is a former pit village situated in the east of Durham. It used to be a large, thriving community when the mines were open. With the pit closures came unemployment and the community was left hardened and feeling isolated.
CAFE Together work alongside other local organisations to offer the best services we can, which we hope will benefit those who come along to the cafe.
