One Stop Community Projects

Supporting Local Communities & Charities

At One Stop we're proud to be local and our staff are often a familiar face in the local community because they are part of it - many of our stores are managed and run by local people.

Our Staff build strong relationships with our customers and are genuinely our greatest asset. This is reflected in their commitment to helping our customers in many different ways, here's just a few ways we've been involved recently:

The Great Paintathalon at Walsall Wood Fellowship Centre

The Great Paintathalon

In November 2011, a cross functional team from our Store Support Centre gave up two days of their time to redecorate the Brownhills and Walsall Wood Fellowship Community Centre.

The centre works to prevent isolation and loneliness among the most vulnerable members of the local community, including the elderly, disabled and those with learning disabilities. The work to spruce up the centre is set to benefit users and staff alike.

Store Collections

The majority of our stores have charity boxes in-store which will support up to two charities at any one time. Recently our store at Great Dunmow held a 'Go Yellow' day and collected approximately £991 for the Air Ambulance.

Leighton Cook

The Leighton Cook Fund

Lynzie, a sales assistant in our Silkworth store is mum to 4 year old Leighton. In 2010, Leighton was diagnosed with High Risk Stage 4 Neuroblastoma (the worst stage this type of cancer can reach). Upon diagnosis, and after many tests and scans he was found to have in the region of 40 tumours and all of his bone marrow was also diseased with the cancer.

He needs our help, and One Stop has helped raise over £15,000 which is helping towards further treatment which would increase Leighton's chance of survival to 50%
