Other ways to support local businesses

Small and independent businesses are the lifeblood of our town centres and neighbourhoods. Shopping from small businesses in your area can help keep the local economy healthy and support someone’s livelihood, but it can also provide a much more personalised shopping experience at a super affordable price. It is said that for every £1 spent with a local, independent business, between 50p-70p circulates back into that local economy.
