Annual General Meeting 20 Thursday November 7pm

Your Village Shop Needs You! 

Our village shop is at the very heart of our community. It’s more than just a place to buy groceries, it’s a meeting point, a source of local produce, and a lifeline for those who can’t easily get into town. Like many small shops, times have been tough, but thanks to new ideas and community support we’re making progress.

On Thursday 20th November 7pm, we’ll be holding our Annual General Meeting (AGM) at Rusper Village Hal, and we’d love to see as many of you there as possible.

But what is an AGM, and why come along?

  • An AGM is a chance for shareholders and community members to hear how the shop has been doing over the past year — the highs, the lows, and the plans for the future.
  • It’s an opportunity to ask questions, share your ideas, and find out how you can get involved.
  • Most importantly, it’s where you can help shape the direction of the shop. After all, it’s a business owned by the community, for the community.

What to expect on the night:

  • A friendly, informal atmosphere.
  • Drinks and nibbles provided.
  • A short update on our finances, projects, and new initiatives.
  • A chance to meet the team behind the counter, as well as your fellow shareholders and supporters.

Last year’s meeting was small simply because many people didn’t realise it was happening. This year we want to change that. Your voice really matters — whether you shop with us every day, once a month, or just want to help ensure the shop’s future.

Please come along, bring a neighbour, and show your support for our village shop. Together, we can make sure it continues to thrive for years to come.
