We are very sad to tell you that we are having to close our shop in Heysham.
To say we are devastated to have to make this decision is an understatement - We have absolutely loved running our little shop and serving you as customers, having a natter and a laugh, and catching up with village gossip!
Most importantly we have helped you refill your household, cleaning and grocery items, saving thousands of single use plastic bottles going to landfill.
As a small business we have appreciated every single visit you have made to the shop and we thank you especially for your support when we ventured into takeaway food and spinning pizzas for your supper! Unfortunately, despite all this, with families having to tighten their shopping budgets, plus rising wholesale costs and energy bills, it has become near impossible for us to cover our running costs.
We hope this isn’t a goodbye forever, and that if/when the economy improves, we can pop up again!
We will be closed this week to give us time to organise the shop ready for our Closing Down Sale which starts on Thursday at 11am, we will have some takeaway lunch for you, hot drinks and that you can buy along with our remaining stock at half price. We will also be doing a few pizza nights so you can get your fix before we close our doors at Woborrow Road towards the end of February.
We will be posting information over the next few days about how you can continue to support our lovely local suppliers, along with our amended opening days.
We will miss you so much,
Love from Michelle, Sharon, Leah & Georgia 💕
