Brent Knoll postman set to open village's new-look community shop

Brent Knoll residents are being invited to turn out for a bacon-sandwich when their local postman opens the village’s new-look community shop on Saturday (October 16th).

As reported here, the shop’s current premises has been sold by its owner and therefore the facilities are moving into a Portakabin next to Brent Knoll village hall.

The opening of Brent Knoll’s new-look shop will be held at 10.30am on Saturday 16th October with postie Tim Dean having the honours of declaring the premises open before everyone enjoys a bacon or sausage sandwich.

David Sturgess, Secretary of the Brent Knoll Community Shop, says: “Tim is a celebrity in our village. He has opened our village fete, and he has demonstrated his musical skills at many or our events.”

“We have had a superb response from our community when we had to move our operations from the former village shop to a new Portakabin in the village car park. That required a team of muscular villagers to transport the huge refrigerators and freezer to the new location,” adds David.

“Now we are ready to welcome customers to our new location, and Tim – our village postman – was the unanimous choice of who should open our new shop!”

"Employers are always seeking more productivity from workers, without considering the human factor, the worker's age, the weather conditions and the intense heat. We need to intervene before it's too late, reducing working hours and the load carried by workers, because it's impossible to sustain the rhythm they're forced to work at for many years."
