Employer Description:
A village store is integral to a community and a lifeline for many people who for whatever reason cannot easily get out and about. We’re a store with a mission to serve not just our village but the wider community. ​We want to make it easier for our residents to do their shopping. We want to make it a venue for visitors. ​Given our location, Detling Community Store is a handy stop off for walkers, cyclists and visitors coming along the Pilgrims Way. We’re open 7 days a week. So why not take a break in our coffee shop, admire the views and sample one of our local cakes. We've got bike parking, and tools if you need to fix your bike. We'll also fill your water bottles for free, and have a water bowl for our doggy visitors too. ​And we want to make it a destination point for the wider community too. ​If you want to shop with a conscience, our community store is not only convenient but green. We’ve said no to plastic and yes to paper bags. We have a range of refillable items, including washing up liquids, soaps and oils.
