The project has a voluntary group of local adults and young people as its trustees and board. It’s also backed by a Young Persons User Group and Tavistock Youth Council.

The need for a youth cafe was identified as part of the Tavistock Market and Coastal Town initiative when a survey asked residents what facilities were needed in the area. Costing over £100.00 to set up the cafe was built and is staffed through grants secured by the board. It’s now in the process of looking for new funding to secure its sustainability.
