The Journey to Establish Chapel Stores

In 2017 it became evident that the existing village shop and Post Office would close. Work started to establish a community owned and run shop to safeguard these vital local services. The following seven years were challenging as we struggled to find suitable premises. After some false starts Chapel Stores finally opened on 26th February 2024, thanks largely due to the perseverance of Rebecca Gabzdyl who spearheaded the project.

Alternative Sites  Considered for the Community Shop

Since 2018 we have considered a variety of sites for the shop. The table below summarises our findings.
