Brent Knoll residentsâ muscle power solves âbig problemâ at village shop!
Residents in Brent Knoll have risen to the challenges of keeping their Community Shop operating â including providing muscle power.
The delivery of a new tall freezer and double-door fridge left villagers with a big challenge after they were left by the lorry-driver outside the shop â and it became clear that the shop volunteers could not get the large appliances through the shopâs front door.
âWe spent ages trying to figure out how we could solve the problemâ, says David Sturgess, Secretary of the Brent Knoll Community Shop.
âBut we were being watched by neighbouring residents, and they provided the solution. A local locksmith unlocked a long-disused second door, and our neighbours marshalled a team of muscular people to get the giant fridge into the shop!â he adds.
