People in Lowestoft are being given the opportunity to learn a new language for free.

Sams Coffee House, on Bevan Street East, will run the Access Community Trust Language Café every fortnight starting with French on Monday, June 26.

The language café is set to be staffed by professionals and people who have a vast knowledge of all languages.

Sessions will be held at The Enterprise Lounge within the coffee shop and begin at 2.30pm.

A spokesman for Access Community Trust said: 'Why not come along and have a coffee and cake and learn something new in a relaxed and friendly environment and something even better – it's totally free. All we ask is that you buy a beverage.'

The bi-weekly events give people the chance to learn a new language, polish up on their existing language skills or simply just meet and chat.
