Tibberton Village Shop
Run by the community, for the community
Meet the Committee.....
I had a few years break from the committee and have now returned!
​
My background is in tourism and retail, so now I am part of the shop retail team. I have lived in Tibberton for over 30 years and our children went to the village school.
My primary role is Bloomers bread, local products, cards, jams and honey.
I moved to Cherrington in the summer of 2021 with my husband and son. Once we got settled in, I started to get involved with the shop in early 2022 and joined the committee in the spring.
​
As well as working the odd Friday morning shift, my main role is organising the shop rota each month. As well as emailing everyone for their availability each month, I’m also responsible for volunteer communications - so you’ll probably get used to seeing my name pop up in your inboxes!

I moved to Tibberton in 2021 with my husband James and 2 children, Philippa and Rory.
I really enjoy village life and love having facilities like a village shop to enjoy. I feel strongly that it is important to support the shop to ensure they remain a focal point for the community.
So, I started volunteering in the shop in 2022 and have recently joined the committee. I’m looking forward to playing an active role and attracting more volunteers to assist the existing team.
I’m a Company Director running a company with my husband that leases Apple Macs to businesses. We are an active family and enjoy a variety of sports from Cyclo-cross to Triathlon. You may even find me running around the village field to improve my fitness!

Hi, I’m Vanessa Grainger, and I’m part of the retail group, and I’m mainly responsible for perishable goods, e.g. eggs, bacon, sausage, so that you can get a hearty breakfast, and I also get the pork and other pies, scotch eggs, and quiches. Mainly at weekends, so you can have a tasty picnic or snack!
​
I’m also responsible for seasonal products, e.g. flowers and plants, Christmas wreaths, logs and kindling, etc.
​
Should you need any of the above, or anything similar, give me a tinkle on 550582.

Nick Greenall
As Secretary I help keep the Shop on track administratively and legally, working closely with Committee colleagues and our volunteers.
​
It’s piloting and navigating all at once, sometimes through turbulent air - as with COVID - but with a few aerobatics thrown in to keep it fun.
​
I volunteer in the Shop usually on Friday/Saturday mornings and help the team compiling the weekend newspapers.
​
So, if you want know more about what happens behind the scenes at the Shop or, chat about aircraft and flying, or anything else, I’m on Alert 5.

My wife, Susannah, and I moved to Cherrington at the start of 2022. We live with our two
horses: Percy who is a traditional cob and Mike the mini mini-Shetland who has a mane to
rival Tina Turner in the 1980s.
My role on the committee is to act as the Treasurer. I am therefore responsible for the
preparation of the management and financial accounts, preparing appropriate management
information and making relevant submissions to HMRC and the Financial Conduct Authority.
All of the finance activity is built on the work done by the committee and those involved in
running the shop but particularly the specific work done by Olivia and Barrie.
As part of the committee, I also aim to support the ongoing development of the shop in order
to support the wider aim of supporting the village and local community.
