Community Connections Millom CIC Now evolved into a wider Community Hub.

Formerly Millom And Around The Combe CIC, we came together in June 2024 with a common goal: to give back to the community in meaningful ways that would support individuals facing challenges in their daily lives.

💜 WHEN GENEROSITY TRAVELS MILES, ITS IMPACT IS FELT RIGHT HERE IN MILLOM.💜

Today, Community Connections Millom CIC received a rather extraordinary delivery.

A beautiful collection of brand-new, tagged clothing, generously donated to support our community shop and the work we do across Millom and Haverigg.

What makes this particularly meaningful is that the person behind this wonderful gesture has no geographical connection to our town.

They simply understand and believe in our mission.

At a time when independent businesses are navigating significant financial challenges, this generosity is especially humbling.

As a small, not-for-profit Community Interest Company, every donation matters.

Income generated through our shop helps us meet our running costs and continue providing a welcoming, accessible place where people can find advice, guidance, practical assistance and, perhaps most importantly, someone who will listen.

This donation is about so much more than clothing.

It is about recognising that communities are strengthened when people and businesses choose to support one another, even when separated by many miles.

We are incredibly grateful for this thoughtful act of generosity, and we look forward to making these beautiful pieces available to our customers.

To our wonderful donor, thank you for believing in what we do and reminding us that community spirit really does extend far beyond geographical boundaries. 💜

We are therefore pleased to offer a limited number of FREE First Period Sample Packs, designed to help young girls feel more prepared, informed and confident.

These sample packs offer an opportunity to become familiar with different period products, supported by helpful introductory information.

We understand that conversations about puberty and periods aren't always easy, and we hope that by offering these packs, we can help make this natural stage of growing up a little less daunting.

There is no charge, no obligation and no need for embarrassment. Simply call into our Community Shop to collect a pack.

🏠 Buying a property? Don't forget to check the flood risk.

Understanding the risk before you purchase can help you avoid unexpected costs, insurance challenges and future disruption. Even if a property hasn't flooded before, it may still be at risk.

Take time to investigate the property's flood history, local flood risk and any existing flood protection measures before making a decision.
