A spokesperson from the group commented: "A massive thank you to the management of The Vapour Bar in Millom for their very kind offer of their rear meeting room for us without charge, on a weekly basis to enable us to do this.
"It means a great deal, it also means that once again we are partnering with a small local business within our town for the benefit of the community."
