Keep Safe Everyone.
Shap Community Enterprise aims to help build a stronger local community through making grants to voluntary groups, clubs and associations in the Shap area.
Most of our funds are raised through our own charity shop, Second Chance and the Monday lunches in the Memorial Hall. This is run entirely by local volunteers and all proceeds from sales at the shop are distributed as grants to community groups in Shap.
Latest round of grants
We have now awarded our latest set of grants to local Shap community groups!! See our Previous Grants page for details. Thats a total of £90783.00 of grants awarded so far. Thanks to all our customers, to everyone who has donated goods to the shop and a special thanks to all our hard working volunteers!
Monday Coffee and Lunches
Want a cup of tea, cake and a chat on a monday morning/lunchtime? Come along to the Memorial Hall between 11am and 1.30pm. Soup sandwiches and a 'special'; cake, tea and coffee. All money raised goes into our grants for local groups.
