THE Island's first community shop will be set up in Seaview.
A team of volunteers in the parish of Nettlestone and Seaview have got together to establish the shop, which will be sited on Seaview High Street.
Scheduled to open in early 2018, the shop will be run by the community, for the benefit of the community.
There will be a meeting held at the Seagrove Pavilion in Seaview on Saturday, July 22, from 10am to 12 noon, so that residents in the area can have their say on what they would like the shop to sell and what services it should offer.
A spokesperson for the team of volunteers said: “All are welcome, so please come along to find out more and share your views with the team. Your support for this exciting new project will be much appreciated.”
