We want to provide a community based service, be an outlet for Yorkshire artisan produce and move toward a more eco-friendly operation.
Whilst we have our own ideas, we really need your input as what you would like to see whether that is on:
- opening hours
- produce/brands/services
- generating community spirit; or
- anything else close to yo

The village store has been a shop for over 100 years and a post office for many of those so we feel that historical burden to continue the tradition.
The village store has been a shop for over 100 years and a post office for many of those so we feel that historical burden to continue the tradition.
We want to put the shop and post office at the heart of the communities in and around the Ouseburn area supporting local causes, the school, the village halls, cricket teams and the churches.
We know it is a buzzword but we aim to become more sustainable when we do this by reflecting upon:
- what we stock, its packaging and impact upon our planet
- where we source it from, the more local the better to reduce our carbon footprint
- how we generate our power and energy to run this space
Councillor Arnold Warneken is holding an open surgery at Ouseburn Village Store on Friday 30th June from 11am to 12:30pm.
The Post Office was transferred to us on 29th September 2023.
We gave Jane and Kate a big thank you and a send off with much coffee, some cake and a little crying!
Thanks to Jane for keeping going throughout the transfer process.
Thanks to Jackie for the fantastic cakes.
Thanks to the villagers for coming out in force.
Going forward: whenever the shop's open, so is the Post Office
