Café Six, which is the dedicated sixth form service, Café Sports, which will cater for the school and leisure centre, the Edge Theatre Bar, which will provide refreshments and the main central Service that provides for the students.

We are thrilled to be using local water from Much Wenlock and will be implementing locally sourced produced throughout each service area to encourage the strong community environment deserving of such an iconic town."
