Community pop-up shop returns

Every Thursday, 11:00am, Newmarket Catholic Church (OLISE) CB8 8LT. 

A joint community project between The Racing Centre and Newmarket Open Door, in the form of a community shop, is set to return to Newmarket on 15 July to support those in the community with hardship.

The pandemic has highlighted that vulnerability in the community is far more prevalent than first anticipated and that people are requiring support more than ever before.

Covid-Safety 

  • We ask that you shop alone, unless with a carer or children
