Locals are trying to save a 141-year-old ironmonger in Pembrokeshire by raising funds to buy the business and running it as a cooperative community shop.
Siop Havards Gymunedol Tydrath (SHGT) has opened a share offer with members of the public encouraged to come forward to invest, buy shares or gift money to the scheme to purchase Havards in Newport.
A total of £475,000 is needed to acquire the historic shop which has been trading in the town since 1881. The funds raised will be used to buy the building and the shop's stock as well as to provide set-up funds and working capital.
