Hopefully it is OK to post on here.
Social Media is a wonderful thing! People sharing ideas, making friends, broadcasting information and moaning about everything including Dover. This set me thinking about how I can do something for the town and that is how the idea for The H.O.T. Shop (Help Our Town) was born. I have been able to achieve this by receiving a grant from Dover Big Local to help with the Business start up. I will be working with Dover Big Local now and in the future.
It will work by people donating items to the shop, such as clothes, bric-a-brac etc. Profit after overheads will go to local projects, organisations or individuals in the Dover District. The local community will be given the opportunity to decide where the money goes by voting on Social Media or in the Shop.
The USP (Unique Selling Point) is money raised will always be staying in our Local Community. We are also looking at having a meeting point for clubs or groups, such as Book worms, Knitters, Crafters etc.
We are now accepting Donations. If you have any, then please email us at
helpourtown@yahoo.com or contact us through our Facebook page
https://www.facebook.com/HotShopDover/ where we can arrange collection or where donations can be dropped off.
The Shop address is Help Our Town, 13 London Road, Dover CT170ST (Next to Turners Model Shop)
