Games & Coffees🎲☕️🃏🍰

Hi Everyone, Please join us for Games & Coffee Afternoon. This event is also alongside other groups I host. We’ll meet in a cosy coffee shop for a relaxed afternoon of board/card games and other easygoing games. Please bring a few of your own, as I’ll be focusing more on hosting than providing games. No pressure, no loud energy just gentle conversation, quiet fun, and friendly faces. Perfect for introverts, shy souls, and anyone who enjoys a calm social space. Any questions or concerns please do message me. I look forward to meeting you Dee
