Probably the closest characteristics to our now discontinued Finest Traditional Coal. Burns with a nice flame, lights easy and even smells like coal as its burning!

Good Afternoon.

We hope you're all having a wonderful day so far. We are pleased to announce the winners of our Bauble Competition are as follows.

5 Yrs & Below Morwenna Wise
6 - 10 yrs Theo Robins
11 - Adult Emma Hackett

Well done guys, we'll be in touch early next month to pass you your prizes.

Thanks to Fitness4U, Camel Creek and the Columba Centre Market for support with the prizes and Andrew Hucklesby for creating the sample.

And of course, thanks to all everyone who took the time to register a vote and support those who entered.

Special thanks though to those who sent in an entry. Be it a sign of the current climate, or maybe the competition has run its course? entries this year were way down on previous years, only 14 across 3 categories compared with just under a hundred last year. As a thank you from us for having a go, everyone that entered will be receiving a little something, we'll be in touch when we're back in January.

In the meantime, enjoy the festivities!

Cheers, All of us @ Glanvilles

Just like that, another year notched up!

And – my goodness, hasn’t 2025 been a tough year for so many?

Never ever have we known such a depressed atmosphere across the board. Manufacturers, distributors and customers taking it super steady in everything they do, mostly down to fiscal uncertainty and what awaits us all as we cross over into the new year. Last year this time, I voiced my opinion that it looked very much like we were heading towards a recession, and while the clever bods will tell you that “technically” it’s not happened (yet), there is no doubt there is a recession in living standards and that there are more names on the UKs “distressed” businesses list than a year ago.

Fortunately, Glanville’s is on no such list, and that is thanks to each and every one of you who has given us an order, big or small, and have chosen to use a family business that champions a local, friendly and personal service.

Despite the gloomy outlook, we’re adopting a “things can only get better” approach and while there maybe the odd tweak here and there, we believe with the continued support of our customers, we’ll be in good shape to weather whatever 2026 sends our way.

Thanks again for your continued support, and also thanks to all those who have dropped in a card or gift for us, as you can see, we had quite a haul again, it’s all been shared up and is very much appreciated.

We’re now closed until the 5th Jan for our annual holiday and am very much looking forward to putting our feet up! We do hope you will get the opportunity to do something similar.

Have yourselves a Merry Christmas, I’ll be back tomorrow with the results of our competition and then we’ll all see you back on the 5th.

Cheers - James, Rachael and all the team @ Glanvilles

First entries are in for our Christmas competition but it has to be said, it's been unusually slow to get going this year! There's still plenty of time to enter, pop in store and pick up a free blank and let the kids get stuck in!

Tis the week before Christmas.....

Last delivery day is 23rd for general deliveries and 19th for Big & Bulky.

Orders can be placed online or via phone or email while we are closed and will be dealt with as a priority when we're back on the 5th.

If anyone needs a bit of extra fuel to tide them over, give us a shout.

Cheers, All of us @ Glanvilles
