I'm considering purchasing a residential house for a charity to use in England.
Partly it would be for food bank & baby clothing bank storage and financial advice but there is a potential that they might wish to start a community cafe, with a particular aim towards teenage homework clubs, people on benefits, and job creation.
My question regards the new Class F community class:
F2(b) Halls or meeting places for the principal use of the local community
Would this allow us to hire out rooms for a charity to operate a cafe at points?
We've previously operated a pop up cafe in a community centre, which was also presumably classed as a "Community" subtype; so does the new Class F allow this? We don't necessarily intend to use the space for a cafe, it would be for some office use, a food bank, and debt advice counselling, but it would be useful to know for future.
