the village and keeping up with the local news. If you’re interested speak to Stuart
or Lesley next time you’re in the shop or email me at the email below.
You might prefer to collect stock. Even if its just once a month, help on a Saturday
morning to collect fruit and veg from Wareham market, or the newspapers from
Puddletown on a Thursday morning, it would be a massive help.
Many hands make light work and this is particularly true for the village shop. Many
people are involved in helping to run the village shop and we’d love you to be
part of the team. Please consider how you might play a part.
Thank you for continuing to support the Village shop.
To place an order please contact us on 01929 472000 during opening hours and
by email Briantspuddle.shop@gmail.com. You can collect or we’re happy to
deliver.

the request.

The Parish Council is discussing with the Erica Trust, the possibility of planting an
