Update from the Shop Steering Group

Coverack Community Shop
A quick update on our progress. We are currently waiting on the FCA (Financial Conduct Authority) registration to be processed which we are advised should be complete within the next four weeks, The shop will then exist as a company (Community Benefit Society) which will then allow us to press ahead with the fund raising. In the meantime, we are making sure everything from giving the store a refresh, recruitment of staff, till and accounting systems, internet connection, insurance, health and safety and initial stock requirements are ready to go once the CBS is registered.
Please be assured the shop is on its way. There will be further communication and updates going forward.

And finally thank you to Mike Thirlaway who is going to attempt a 75km trek across the island of Andros (through some very tough terrain) over Easter and has offered to raise money for the shop via sponsorship of this feet.

Hi all, some of you may remember I broke my leg in Greece in Septem… Mike Thirlaway needs your support for Sponsored Trek to raise funds for new Coverack Shop
