We are delighted to announce that in 2019, the Islip Shop Community Fund donated funds to the following organisations:

  • Islip Baby & Toddler Group – £100 for playmats and toys.
  • Islip Thursday Club – £400 to cover the cost of a coach for the annual outing.
  • Otmoor Archeological & Historical Society – £200 to cover the cost of hiring the hall.
  • Islip Cricket Club – £500 to subsidise young players’ match fees.
  • Islip Café – £350 to support the running costs of the community cafe.

It is thanks to all the support from our customers and volunteers that the shop continues to be able to support such worthy organisations.
