About us

The Strood Green Shop Association Limited

Authorised by the Financial Services Authority Reg. No. 30434R

The management committee

The project to launch The Shop at Strood Green is run by a committee of volunteers. Many other people in the local area are helping and there are already several people who have volunteered to help in the shop once it is open. Once the shop is ready to trade, the committee will appoint a manager to run the shop, assisted by the volunteer staff, on a day-to-day basis.

We are a registered Industrial and Provident Society and our initial management committee is self-appointed until the first AGM, at which stage it will be up for election by the shareholders.

The current committee is as follows:

Helen Melia
