Hi everyone,


As many of you will have seen in the General thread, Gather, a new zero waste shop / refillery and community space (think environment talks and sustainability workshops) is opening shortly at 121 Bellenden Road.


As a bit of context, we're an independent social enterprise, run by us, Laura and Tash, We're both local and we're really passionate about making this work for the community. We have been planning this for a very long time, and some of you will have filled in our survey many months ago, so thank you for bearing with us.


After a number of hiccups, we missed our target of opening in May, but do hope to open by the end of this month, and in the meantime you're really welcome to pop by to say hi when we're in there getting things ready, or to follow/read up on us at - links below.


We'll definitely continue to use the forum to get views on what more, better, and differently we can be doing. This is all new for both of us, but hopefully it won't show!


Thanks for all your support,


Laura and Tash

Hi all,


With apologies for the delay in getting back on the revised timings, we are delighted to announce we will (finally) be opening on July 6 - hope to see as many of you as possible in the weeks and months ahead.


Thanks


Tash and Laura, Gather, 121 Bellenden Road

Thanks all, and yes Sue we're big fans of Laura over at BYO and have recommended her on the forum to others before too!


As you will have seen from the updated date, very sadly we have had to shift our big launch day back a week to July 13. We've had a couple of hiccups in the last few days that have made it impossible to open tomorrow. We're pretty gutted, but we are nearly there.


See everyone soon.


Tash and Laura

      Chicks and ducklings

      By malumbu · Posted

      Hmmm, millions of animals are killed each year to eat in this country.  10,000 animals (maybe many more) reared to be eaten by exotic pets, dissected by students, experimented on by cosmetic and medical companies.  Why is this any different? Unless you have a vegan lifestyle most of us aren't in a position to judge.  I've not eaten meat for years, try not to buy leather and other animal products as much as possible but don't read every label, and have to live with the fact that for every female chick bred to (unaturally) lay eggs for me to eat, there will be male that is likely top be slaughtered, ditto for the cow/milk machines - again unnatural. I wasn't aware that there was this sort of market, but there must be a demand for it and doubt if it is breaking any sort of law. Happy to be proved wrong on anything and everything.

      Food poisoning at Dugard & Daughters - twice!

      By theweekend · Posted

      I don't know how spoillable food can be used as evidence in whatever imaginary CSI scenario you are imagining.  And yes, three times. One purchase was me, others were my partner. We don't check in with each other before buying meat. Twice we wrote it off as incidental. But now at three times it seems like a trend.   So the shop will be hearing from me. Though they won't ever see me again that's for sure.  I'd be happy to field any other questions you may have Sue. Your opinion really matters to me.

      If you thought they were off, would it not have been a good idea to have kept them rather than throwing them away, as evidence for Environmental Health or whoever? Or indeed the shop? And do you mean this is the third time you have bought chicken from the same shop which has been off? Have you told the shop? Why did you buy it again if you have twice previously had chicken from there which was off? Have I misunderstood?

      I found this post after we just had to throw away £14 of chicken thighs from Dugard in HH, and probably for the 3rd time. They were roasted thoroughly within an hour of purchase. But they came out of the oven smelling very woofy.  We couldn't take a single bite, they were clearly off. Pizza for dinner it is then. Very disappointing.
