“I have found Fare Shop to be invaluable. The staff are all extremely considerate and respectful. The shop is very well organised and being able to choose the things that I need is the best thing, as I am on a specific diet. The fresh fruit and veg is always the main thing I need. The Fare Shop allows for some dignity in a time of need during the current financial crisis.” (A customer.)
