For most villages a shop is a vital lifeline and for some people, especially those without transport it is an important connection with the world beyond their front door. Our village shop played an essential role for many households during lockdown.
Unfortunately for many reasons Wendy and Alan will close down the shop and we thank them for all they have done over the past few years.
It now time to investigate a Community Shop by forming a steering group of residents prepared to join together to get the ball rolling. Please contact the Tricia Chapman, Parish Clerk (bradfordabbaspc@hotmail.co.uk or 473833), if you feel you have the time to help. If we do not get enough volunteers for this first stage, a Community Shop is not feasible.
