We're excited to be working with Consultants, The Development Crew, to carry out this work looking in to the possibility of taking on a new retail / event space within the village. The idea is that the Old Bank could be a charity shop by day, and a multi-purpose event space in the evenings - maybe even a pop-up restaurant for themed nights such e.g. Carribbean, Thai or veggie food.
The purpose of this is to look at viability of an income generating arm for LEAP Together's activities - The Larder, the Feel Good Festival and Diggin' It. Any profit would come back in to the community through these projects.
This work has been made possible thanks to funding awarded by the Community-Led Local Development Fund - thanks to them too! They have also funded the work we're currently carrying out at the Community Larder at the moment fitting out an upgrade to the interior of our storage facility and the Pantry cabin.
