Local shops to add to your list

Support Local

Six of the best

Posted: Sunday 24th January 2021

There’s no doubt that the many independent bookshops, florists, greengrocers and boutiques that make our towns and villages vibrant and unique, need our support.

Being closed on and off over many months, means that sales have often relied solely on internet purchases - which not all shops can offer.

Many of us have made the shift to shopping local since the pandemic, so here are a few on our doorstep that we highly recommend.
