We need your help…
Without the fantastic team of volunteers, your community shop would not be sustainable. A few of our loyal team have left the area or their circumstances have changed and therefore we need a few more people to join our friendly group. Could this be you?
It really is great way to keep in contact with local residents and your community. You will never be on your own in the shop and don’t worry, you would not be working the Post Office counter. Please call by and let us know if you are interested, or email Jacky on: Detail on PDF copy on home page
