Open Door Shop

Open Door Shop Reopens!

Saturday 24th April was a special day for all who serve in and visit the Open Door Community Shop. After a period of closure lasting many months the newly remodelled shop was re-opened for business. At midday a large crowd gathered as the Mayor of Northampton Michael Hill cut the ribbon and officially re-opened the shop to the public.

The redevelopment work has included an extension and refurbishment, in order to give extra retail space, and a larger coffee area. There is also more space for customers with their trolleys and buggies. It has a light, bright atmosphere and we hope that our customers will continue to enjoy the benefits of inexpensive goods, refreshments and friendship.

A vital part of Mount Pleasant's vision to reach out to our local neighbourhood with the love of Jesus, is through our community shop - the Open Door Shop. The shop is staffed mainly by volunteers from the church and the neighbourhood. It is open from 10.00 am to 4.00 pm Monday to Friday, and Saturday from 10.30 am to 1.30 pm, providing second-hand goods, such as:

There is also a seating area for serving refreshments, which has proved to be an invaluable place for listening and talking with our neighbours.

Funds from the Open Door Shop go into the local community, for example:

All donations of second-hand goods are gratefully received.
