Keith MacFarlance, area manager at Co-op, said: “As a community retailer we recognise how important it is for residents to have a convenience store, and we would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused by our temporary closure.

“We are delighted that the charity shop has agreed to let us borrow their home.

“We’re in the process of trying to find them somewhere new, but in the meantime we have made a donation to thank them.”

The convenience store will be open from 8am to 8pm.
