Monks Eleigh Village Shop!

Monks Eleigh Village Shop, situated next to The Swan Public House, is a non-profit-making organisation staffed mainly by volunteers from the village.
It sells a range of essential and useful products and has long opening hours to suit both people who travel outside of the village to work as well as those who don't.
In its present form the shop was set up in 2003 when the previous one closed down.
Conversion of the building was paid for by grants and local fundraising and the whole project was managed by a committee of local people.
The shop employs a manager to do the day-to-day running but the counter is staffed by a team of about 40 volunteers who work in sessions of varying lengths throughout the week and at weekends.

Don't forget, we are always looking for volunteers to man the counter or shelf-fill
for a couple of hours a week or whatever you can manage. What a great way of
getting to meet other residents.
If you are interested in volunteering, please enquire at the shop or give the
Co-Chairman, Mr. Peter Maynard, a call on 01449 740465.
