De Koffie Pot in Hereford's Left Bank Village was recently
flooded but, the floods have receded since this photo was taken.

De Koffie Pot didn't look its best last week! But don't worry, we're all dry now and back up and running! We are so grateful for and heartened by all the community support we received! Please join us for our upcoming talks, discussions and films, though we hope these won't be dry!

Another cinema night in the Speakeasy! This month's film is Soylent Green. An American Dystopian thriller set in a future where Earth's suffering from the effects of pollution, over-population and the Greenhouse Effect!


Wednesday 20th November - Human Rights Poetry Evening

Hereford Amnesty present an evening of poetry readings and discussion about the power of words in the struggle for human justice and liberty. Amnesty International was founded because one man believed that the pen is mightier than the sword in the struggle for human rights. We’ll consider if this is still true today.
