Libby’s Tearoom opened in 2015 it quickly became a social hub for the local community. Also around that time our own mother (Libby) began to develop dementia and the whole garden area became a safe haven for her.

Cafe Amach (Cafe Out) has been created in response to a long awaited need in the South Armagh area for a safe, social and empowering space for LGBTQ+ young people and adults. It officially opened on Friday 25th March 2022.
The main plan and the priority is to create a visibly safe space for young LGBTQ people. All staff are LGBTQ+ trained and/or LGBT themselves.
The big emphasis is it’s going to be LGBTQ+ and allies, the idea being that you can bring your friends, meaning that anyone who comes doesn’t have to necessarily disclose anything about themselves if they don’t want to! It’s all about solidarity and being there for your friends.

“Hannah Agnew, a young artist, was reared in the foothills of south Armagh and she went to study and live in England. It is a well trodden path. But after some time, Hannah decided to return because she wanted to create a safe space and meeting point for the young (and not so young) LGBT+ community and their friends. And thus Cafe Amach was born – a first for south Armagh and perhaps in rural Northern Ireland.
Amach is a riot of colour. A rainbow haven complete with tray bakes, herbal teas and sustainably sourced coffee. The cafe provides, not just a focal point for the local LGBT+ community and friends, it’s a vital resource and support hub for people living in rural communities. Amach offers social gatherings and wellbeing courses. Most important of all, it’s a shared safe space to simply sit chat, listen and, if you feel like it, sing.”
