Book a slot in our Eastleigh Shop

by

In the Swan Centre in Eastleigh we are sharing a shop space with the charity flourish.

This is quite a large and mostly open space with power and light and easy access. I have used it a few times supporting a novice computer user. It is ideal for meetings or sessions and we can offer it for people to use within the voluntary sector.

If you help run a local group and are volunteers and would like to take a look around the space or go ahead and book a slot you can. The shop is available Monday- Thursdays from 10-4 booking with us at One Community.

Naomi Stock is managing the bookings and can be contacted via email NStock@1community.org.uk or call on 023 8064 1202.

Free Shop Space for Local Voluntary and Community Organisations.

One Community is very excited to be working in partnership with Flourish and Solent Mind to offer free shop space in Eastleigh’s Swan Centre from the beginning of February.

Local charities, voluntary and community groups can book a one-off slot, perhaps in relation to a particular campaign “day” or “week”, or a regular slot, such as the first Monday of the month, for your organisation to showcase your services, host a meeting or simply attract new members.

The shop is available for bookings from Monday to Thursday.

This offer is open to any voluntary or community organisation, with priority given to members of One Community. Find out more about membership HERE.

You will have facilities to make tea/coffee, and chairs and tables will be available.

           

You will not able to sell any products directly to the public, but you could display a donation pot.

Purple Tuesday is coming!

by

On Tuesday the 12th of November it is Purple Tuesday. Purple Tuesday is an organisation which tries to make shops, services and businesses more accessible and inclusive of disabled customers.

Across the UK, the Purple Pound – the consumer spending power of disabled people and their families – is worth £249 billion and is rising by an average of 14% each year.

Worldwide, the Purple Pound equates to a staggering £2.25 trillion, yet less than 10% of businesses have a targeted plan to access this disability market. As a result, many disabled people cannot access services and businesses.

Purple Tuesday is about improvements to businesses and services to value and meet the needs of disabled customers. It is about making the customer experience accessible.

In the Eastleigh Swan Shopping Centre we will have a stall on Tuesday the 12th from 11-3. We will have leaflets and information about One Community, including Hate Crime reporting.

Please come along and chat with us, we would like to see you and hear how you would like access to services and businesses improved.
