  • 10 Years at the Church

    June 2014 marked the tenth anniversary of establishing the shop in the church. It has proved a successful venture and both for people in the village and passing walkers who appreciate the home made cakes. The shop has also worked with the church on a joint project which saw solar panels on the newly restored roof backed up with storage batteries.

    On 23rd June 2024, we had a party to celebrate with cakes, tea, music and pizzas. A great time was had by all and we look forward to another successful ten years. Thanks to all the volunteers, behind the counter, making cakes and helping in other ways that have made the shop such a success.

  • Windows in the door

    The door to the shop now has two glass panels installed by our local village joiner Steve Harby. These have been of great value during cold spell when the door is shut. Customers can see that the shop is open and volunteers can also see approaching customers. A small change that has had a big impact.

  • New Fridges

    The refrigerated display cabinet in the shop has been replaced by two new fridges. The provide better refrigeration as well as allowing more products to be on display and accessible to customers.

Covid19
