Handcross Hardware and Craft is the trading name for Dudley House Trust Ltd.  The business was established on 1st October 2000 when we took over the premises from Noel Matthews, our predecessor.

Dudley House Trust was set-up by a group of local Christians who wanted to show that being a Christian is about everyday of the week, and not just Sunday.

The shop aims to meet the needs of those around, not readily available, and also by continuing to be the communication centre for Help At Hand and the Handcross District Community Bus, as well as providing a range of activities.

The property is leased from the National Trust, who have carried out extensive refurbishment of the property and have been a great encouragement to us.

With the numerous changes that have occurred over the recent years, we are looking for new ways to continue the business into the future, the most recent of which, is a Cycle Repair Shop.
