When service personnel leave the Armed Forces, one of the biggest things they often miss is the sense of belonging. The camaraderie and laughter, the banter – it’s not something that is easily replicated in civilian life. 

That’s why we’ve set up Cookhouse.

It gives ex-service personnel in the area the opportunity to connect with others who have served, make new friends and enjoy themselves with people that have shared similar experiences. Our weekly social sessions offer free refreshments and a wide variety of activities ranging from: quizzes, dominoes, card games, music and indoor bowls.
