Have You Been Contacted by Active Nation in the Last 6 Months?

We’re asking members of the public to come forward with any information, emails, or communications they’ve received from Active Nation over the past six months — especially if they were promoting business or pushing bookings despite knowing the business was no longer a going concern.

We're currently gathering evidence of potential wrongful trading, and your input could help.

If you have anything relevant — no matter how small — please forward it to [email protected].

Let’s hold the right people accountable.

Unfortunately due to unforeseen circumstances with Active Nation Pickles Cafe will be closed for the foreseeable future. I would like to thank all of our wonderful customers that have supported us over the last 18 months to make the centre the great community it was and hope to see you all again soon in some way or another. Many Thanks. Rosie, Rory, Carol and the rest of the Pickles crew x

Thanks to all our volunteers which this week include 4 under 18’s and 3 who have never volunteered before 👏

Pickles Cafe will be open from
