Are you interested in helping a social, vibrant Community Interest Company move forwards by supporting them with your financial expertise and knowledge?
Do you have a passion for or an interest in reducing environmental impact, empowering communities and food systems?
BrightStore is seeking an enthusiastic individual with financial experience to join our Board of Directors on a voluntary basis.
BrightStore CIC is an affordable food scheme, offering a weekly shop for a fraction of what it would normally cost and in a positive, welcoming, social setting.
Our membership scheme operates on a ‘pay what you can afford’, solidarity principle, inviting the whole community to take part, those who can pay more supporting those who are less financially stable.
The produce at BrightStore comes from high quality surplus, donated food from local businesses and supplemented by bulk buying.
We are run by the community for the community, with members working together to run their local store, connect with each other and help tackle wider issues around food in their local community.
