Williams donates fridge to support mental health café in King’s Lynn

Written by: Edward Waddell
Williams Refrigeration has donated a refrigeration cabinet, worth around £3,000, to the Steam House Café in King’s Lynn.

The mental health and wellbeing hub offers holistic support, therapies and activities during the day as well as urgent assistance and appointments in the evening, including one-to-one counselling.

The Williams J500U is 1940mm tall and has a capacity of 523 litres. This is useful for kitchens with low ceilings, since top-mounted systems can overheat if there’s not enough room for them to ventilate. 

Georgina Clark, human resources manager at Williams, said: “Mental health has rightly been taken much more seriously in recent years. I had heard about the Steam House Café and went along to see for myself what they offer. 

“The café provides a brilliant service. It’s wonderful because as well as offering a walk-in service staffed by mental health support workers, the counselling takes place in a very relaxed, café style environment… which is where our fridge came in.”

Williams Refrigeration is based in King’s Lynn and offers a range of commercial refrigeration including gastronorm cabinets and counters, specialist bakery equipment, coldrooms, multidecks and blast chillers.
