This team was much helped by the good work done by others since the shop closure was announced.<\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"margin:0;font-family:'Arial', sans-serif;\"><span style=\"color:#000000;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><span style=\"margin:0;font-family:'Arial', sans-serif;\"><span style=\"color:#000000;\">From the demonstrations of support in the public meeting, and from the responses in the returned questionnaires to which many of you have contributed, there certainly is enough goodwill and offers of support from the community to run a volunteer-based village shop, to include post office services. This will take a little time to organise to ensure success, so the shop will close as scheduled on Sunday. The aim will be to open again in the current shop premises as soon as the necessary start-up and operating arrangements have been organised.<\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"margin:0;font-family:'Arial', sans-serif;\"><span style=\"color:#000000;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><span style=\"margin:0;font-family:'Arial', sans-serif;\"><span style=\"color:#000000;\">We owe our thanks to Chris &amp; Pete at the pub for all their work in arranging a continuation of post office services and newspapers. The post office will be available in the pub from Monday 12<sup><span style=\"font-size:small;\">th<\/span><\/sup>. Opening times are 09.30 to 13.30 on Mondays (10.00 opening on the 12<sup><span style=\"font-size:small;\">th<\/span><\/sup> to allow for set-up) and 13.30 to 17.00 on Wednesdays.

The closure period will allow some necessary maintenance and repair work to the premises.<\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"margin:0;font-family:'Arial', sans-serif;\"><span style=\"color:#000000;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><span style=\"margin:0;font-family:'Arial', sans-serif;\"><span style=\"color:#000000;\">The long term success of the shop will depend absolutely on the level of support given by the community \u2013 start-up funding, volunteer working, and using the shop when it opens. It will be our collective responsibility.<\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"margin:0;font-family:'Arial', sans-serif;\"><span style=\"color:#000000;\">As part of the preparation work, those of you
