Aged 15-18 and in town on a Thursday evening? Pop into our brand new ‘The Fountain at Costa’ events, every week starting this Thursday (20th October). We’ll have consoles, competitions, challenges and prizes. It’s free to get in, but bring some dosh for discount Costa drinks, snacks and our tuck shop.

We’re really excited about this as it marks a new step for the project in our aim to provide facilities for young people in Bedford town centre. Rest assured, we still want to find somewhere we can call our own home, but for now the kind folks at Costa in Midland Road have agreed to let us hang out at their place! What a great bunch they are!

Want a flyer to print for yourself? Get it here!

More info? Get in touch by emailing hello@fountainbedford.co.uk or calling for a chat on 07732 069561. See you there!

Sponsor Steph as she attempts a 100 hour silence in aid of us!

Give easily by text message, just text HUSH00 (that’s zero zero) and an amount to 70070. For example, ‘HUSH00 £10’. Texts will be charged at your standard network rate, plus your donation.

Steph is one of the Trustees of The Fountain, and for those of us that know her, we also know how much of a challenge this will be. She’s had t-shirts printed ready, with answers to common questions for her to point at as needs be!

Watch out for updates on how she’s doing on our Twitter and Facebook pages!
