Castle Beach Cafe - Falmouth will be opening on Christmas Day between 9am and 1pm, with owner Emily encouraging those who might find themselves alone this festive season to keep her company, have a chat and enjoy a hot chocolate by the sea.

Emily is passionate about connecting with her community, and hopes that the cafe may be able to spread a little festive cheer to those in need. This all stems from her own experiences with grief, and coping with it at Christmastime.

This Sunday, the cafe welcomes back Tessa, Shaun and their two rescue donkeys, who will be ready to receive lots of attention from the public, and raise money for the Brooke Foundation. Don't forget to grab a Christmas toastie from the cafe too!
