Saturday 30th April 2022
We are delighted and so excited to announce we have signed the lease for the new community shop at 14-15 Hartfield Road - so we are sending out a huge thank you to everyone who has given their time, donated money or given ideas to make this possible. We especially thank our Parish Council for their generous funding and the Stockleys in their generosity in enabling us to take the lease.
