Thank you Kings Farm Shop
When the July print edition of Wendover News went to press, retail businesses which were classified as “non-essential” were opening up after many weeks in lockdown due to severe regulations imposed while the Coronavirus pandemic swept through the UK. During that very difficult period, local businesses rallied to the cause of making sure that all local people were supplied with their basic needs for food and cleaning which were the main issues during the emergency.
The contribution of Wendover News was to upload to our social media and website everyday, the current information about which businesses were able to offer these necessary products. Wendover Parish Council recruited volunteers through the Good Neighbour Scheme. These people delivered the necessary goods to vulnerable people who could not go out for whatever reason.
In this article we identify one of the businesses which helped us in our hour of need. It is not a comprehensive list. Please write to Wendover News if you would like to share the lockdown story of a Wendover business which went out of its way to help you during lockdown and we will publish it for you. Already available: Budgens, Lloyds Pharmacy, The Post Office, The Bakers Shop. To follow: No2 Pound Street. This article first appeared in the July print edition of Wendover News. The entire edition can be seen here.
Thank you Kings Farm Shop
It is always possible to buy a limited range of Kings Farm Shop products in Budgens but to get the full service it is necessary to go to their premises in Nash Lee End. It’s a lovely walk through the field off Dobbins Lane/Bridleways to Nash Lee End. Kings Farm Shop is always extending its range of food on offer and during that very hot spell, they built a shelter to protect their queue, carefully taped with two metre distancing spaces. A big thank you from everyone at Kings Farm shop to all our customers old and new for their continued support over the recent lockdown. The new website allows you to browse, shop online, for pickup or free delivery service within 5 miles of Wendover for orders over £30.
