Could you spare just two hours a week?

Skittles village shop is looking for volunteers to join our friendly and welcoming team.

It’s a lovely opportunity to meet people, enjoy being part of a team and help make a difference locally. Just two hours a week would be a huge help, and all profits from the shop go straight back into supporting our community.

Interested? Please send us a message or pop into the shop for a chat. We’d love to hear from you.

Please share and help us spread the word.
