Information from the Sarrat Village shop website http://www.sarrattvillage.org/home
 
Sarratt Village shop is at the heart of the Sarratt community.  The previous owners were looking to sell the shop as a going concern.
As a community we ran a campaign to raise enough money to buy the shop from the existing owners, a local family, so that it can be run and developed over the long term for the benefit of the wider community. 
The campaign to buy the shop started in mid February 2010 and we were successful in securing enough pledges of funds from over 85 families within the community to make a formal offer of purchase which was accepted.
After a lengthy period of due diligence and not without some drama along the way we succeeded!!!
We are pleased to announce that as from the 4th of July 2011 the Village through investment by 85 families within the community have purchased the village shop to be run to serve the community.
