Co-op Local Community Fund Final Update 2019-2020

Dear Theatre Supporter

We’re delighted to confirm that Co-op members have raised a total of £3,125.51 for Shanklin Theatre during 2019-2020.

Thanks to our Treasurer; Peter Frankling, by initiating and submitting our fund application, Shanklin Theatre was chosen to benefit from the last round of the Co-op Local Community Fund to upgrade and renovate the theatre Bar area. The funding round opened on the 27th October 2019 and closed on the 24th October 2020.

When you buy selected Co-op products and services, 2p for every £1 spent goes into your membership account. The Co-op will split the same between like-minded organisations and local causes. The Co-op will give the same amount you earn to community causes just like ours. Just swipe your membership card or scan your phone using the Co op App.

● Daisy Chains Isle of Wight Children’s Charity

● Isle of Wight Donkey Sanctuary

● SPIIOW (suicide prevention and intervention hub)

We would like to say a HUGE thank you to everyone that have shopped locally at Landguard Road Co-op and supported our very worthy cause! Our thanks also go to the brilliant team at our local Co-op for working with us over the last year lead by Julie & Simon
