The website designed to promote an exciting project to create a community shop at Grampound between St Austell and Truro in Cornwall has been launched. When the people of Grampound learnt that Hollies Store and Post Office was closing in June 2013, due to retirement, a village meeting of local people expressed a need for, and desire to establish, a community shop.
As a first step a Share Offer is being made available to local residents and friends of Grampound from 2nd Dec 2013 to 28th Feb 2014 to encourage true community ownership and commitment in an exciting and fulfilling venture which will be a great legacy for the village.
Share Offer packs are being delivered personally to all households in the Parish with an invitation to attend a special evening at the Heritage Centre on December 6th when you can discuss the plans for the village community store with the Steering Group members and ask all your questions.
Share Offer packs, the Business Plan & Application Forms can also be downloaded from this site.
