Thurcroft Big Local Shop to Close

Thurcroft Big Local Partnership has agreed to close the shop at the end of March 2016. The shop has been a great drop in, a place for advice and information sessions and a small community hub at the centre of the village. Many thanks to the small group of  volunteers who have kept it open all this time.
