Shop nominated for www.thelocalshop.com community heroes award

Berrynarbor Community Shop was officially opened in October 2004 after a community co-operative was formed to prevent the shop and post office closing down following the retirement of the existing postmaster.  Alex Parke, Secretary for the Berrynarbor Community Enterprise, believes that the shop is central to their community:  “The belief is that the village shop and sub post office is one of the key facilities, the heart of any village.  This is also confirmed by the fact that at least 30 of the volunteers are still happy working in the shop, the villagers enjoy shopping there and meeting their friends, and that the turnover is up by about 80% on that achieved in the previous year by the previous owner.”
