A pop-up Conversation Café has been launched in Exeter today for Ukrainian refugees and host families. It's also for people to find out information, fundraise, meet up and socialise.

The Café is located at 6 Paris Street, and is the brainchild of Olya Petrakova and Maketank. Maketank is a partnership that works with organisations such as Devon for Ukraine, Exeter City Council and others.

Today's opening event got underway at 5pm, where representatives from Exeter City Council and local communities attended.
