ITV News - 6 April 2024
On 6th April 2024, the Dobcross Village Store and Post Office became a community-owned co-operative. (Dobcross Village Society Ltd.)
Thanks to the generous contributions from our residents and supporters, Dobcross village store continues to provide a vital community service for the people of Dobcross, our Saddleworth neighbours, and visitors.
We are very grateful to be 'Funded by the UK Government' thanks to a successful grant application, which has helped with the store's refurbishment (February 2025).
Open seven days a week for your everyday essentials, postal and banking services, and more. We are a community co-operative venture, here to serve our local community with a smile. Pop in, do your shopping, stay for a chat, meet friends for coffee...
Have you had a browse of our new seed library yet?
This remarkable library was set up by customer Hayley Gee, exactly the input a village store needs!
Pop in, browse, take or donate your home-grown seeds. Share the love with our fellow green-fingered friends or be inspired to grow your own!
