Safe space offers quiet place to pause during Congleton Food and Drink Festival
Congleton Food and Drink Festival is fast approaching.
Ahead of the hugely popular event's return on Sunday (June 8), TMC Strategic Communications has announced plans for safe space.
The Space, a co-working and meeting hub on High Street, will be open throughout the day, offering a quiet, inclusive environment for anyone in need of a moment's pause.
Tim McCloud, chief executive officer of TMC, said, "We're passionate about being more than just a business on the high street, we're an active part of Congleton life.
"When big events like the Food and Drink Festival bring thousands of people into town, we want to do our bit to help everyone enjoy the day."
He added: "It's about making sure the festival is truly inclusive.
"Whether someone needs a moment to regroup, has accessibility requirements, or just wants somewhere quiet to sit for a while, that's what being part of a community means to us."

Now in its 15th year, the Food and Drink Festival transforms Congleton town centre, with more than 70 stalls spread across High Street, Swan Bank and Mill Street.

It isn't the first time TMC and The Space have supported such community celebrations, having welcomed visitors during the town's Christmas lights switch-on in 2024.
Along with the safe space, festival organisers have arranged for portable toilets on Market Street, with accessible toilet facilities located inside the Town Hall
There will also be 10 pre-bookable Blue Badge spaces at the bottom of Mill Street, adjacent to Ableworld – booking is essential via the Information Centre.
