Hello, as promised, another little video to walk you through entering the Church rooms for Night Light Cafe - Market Rasen ...

We're open every Monday 6pm to 9pm for anyone adult finding life difficult.

New volunteers 🙋‍♂️ 🙋‍♀️ always welcome here at Night Light Cafe - Market Rasen

Can you help?

The Night Light Cafés provide a safe space and a listening ear for whenever life feels difficult. We have 26 Night Light Cafes across Lincolnshire, all staffed by teams of trained volunteers. Some volunteers offer one evening a month, others may do more.

This is a rewarding role, knowing that you are making a difference to others and also getting valuable experience that can benefit your career path or enhance your retirement. All training is provided.

For more information, please contact nightlight@actstrust.org.uk or call 0300 011 1200.

We had a great first session in our new home last night! So proud of our regular guests and our wonderful volunteers who met the challenges of a new venue head on and helped us all to adjust the new environment to make it the safe welcoming space they know and love. Huge thanks too to St Thomas's Church Rooms for having us and making us so welcome 🙌

Here's a couple of photos showing the inside of the church rooms which we took just before we opened. We chose to switch off some of the lights to keep our cosy vibe going; and keep some of the curtains closed so there's some privacy for our guests whilst still allowing us to see outside.

There's a small kitchen with hatch for serving our refreshments, and two individual toilets, one of which has disabled-friendly access.

As ever, we're happy to meet you outside and walk in with you if that helps 😊

⏰‼️📣 ANNOUNCEMENT ⏰‼️📣

Night Light Cafe - Market Rasen has a new home, starting Monday 13th April - same time, different place! - we'll be meeting at the Church Rooms on the Marketplace from now on.

It's the small brick building between Andy's charity shop & St Thomas Church. We'll be using the back door, which is step-free, to enable access for all - you'll see our banner just inside the door.

You'll find the same warm welcome, hot & cold drinks, snacks & treats, plus a selection of mindful activities as before, and a safe space to come and be if you're finding life difficult. All adults are welcome. Just message this page if you'd like someone to meet you outside - we know how scary that first step into a strange environment can be!

In order to keep opening every Monday, we're actively recruiting a few more volunteers to work alongside our wonderful team - are you a good listener? Can you make all sorts of people feel safe and welcome? Are you able to give around 3-4 hours on a Monday evening once a fortnight? Do you have lived experience of poor mental health, but in a good place now & stable for at least 6 months?

If the answer is YES!, then get in touch either by email nightlightcafemarketrasen@gmail.com or message this page to start our safe recruitment path to volunteering - an informal interview, DBS checking and references taken, then training in Mental Health Awareness and Safeguarding to ensure we continue to provide the best service for our guests.

We are CLOSED tonight so our wonderful team can take a break.

Back open in our NEW location next week at the Church Rooms on the Marketplace.

If you need urgent support, phone 111 and option 2 to speak to the Mental Health crisis team, or in an emergency use 999.

Stay safe, and enjoy the sunshine - all that Vitamin D is good for your wellbeing 🌞😊

05/04/2026

Hi all, after our sessions tonight, Bro Pro will be taking a short break until Tuesday of next week so that our amazing volunteers can have a well deserved rest.

In the event of a mental health crisis/emergency, dont hesitate to call 111 and select the mental health option.

In life threatening circumstances always dial 999 and ask for an ambulance.

Know Your Worth Gents .... Stay Gold!!
