Rumours about the Co-op closing not true

There have been rumours recently that the Co-op on Church Road is to close at the end of March 2007 - before the replacement is built on the new site near what used to be Abakan.

These rumours are wrong. There are no plans to close the Co-op until the new shop is ready. I know this because I have today (21st of September) spoken to the Manager and she was very clear that there are no such plans. As far as she is aware the discussions between the Co-op and the Council are continuing and the Co-op want to be part of the new development. She is also clear that this is a successful shop which has a lot of good customers and makes a profit.

Please tell your friends that this rumour is untrue.
