A huge thank you to our customers and volunteers!

Thanks to your support of our community shop, last year we were able to award Community Grants to the fantastic local organisations listed below, each receiving £300 to help continue their valuable work in our community.

Over the coming weeks, we'll be sharing some of the wonderful ways this funding has made a difference and the positive impact it has had on local people.

Every purchase you make and every hour volunteered helps us give back to our community. Together, we're making a real difference. Thank you for being part of it!

Trawden chocolate and Trawden beer! What could be next?!

The Tramlines beer is back in stock from the brilliant Unbound brewery in Colne. They are a craft, small batch brewery and couldn’t be more local to us. Pop in and have a look at the other beers on the shelves to find your favourites.

The Trawden chocolate comes from Choc Affair in York and the gorgeous photo on the label was taken by Molly, our volunteer coordinator. We already stock a range of their chocolate, including dairy free, and this is a great addition. We think they could make lovely gifts, even to yourself 😊

Here’s a quick reminder from Molly how the filling station scales work. If you need any help please ask one of our brilliant volunteers 😊

Today is World Refill Day! It's a global call to cut single-use plastics by choosing reusable and refillable options. Small everyday swaps - like using beeswax wraps instead of cling-film, or refilling bottles and containers - can make a big impact.

Why not join the from16 - 20 June: Try one simple swap each day, or stick with one that works for you. From reusing your containers to going packaging-free … every swap counts. One Swap. 5 days. Big impact.

Did you know that all our profits from the shop go back into the community?

One of the ways we do this is to award grants to other local voluntary groups. We have received this little thank you card for the recent £300 we have provided to the Guides.

We are proud to be able to support them and we hope you, our customers are too 😊. Without you shopping with us, we wouldn't have such a fantastic community, so thank you too!
