Here in Cheltenham we have some really great local shops and businesses. While they may not always be able to compete on price they more than make up for it in offering us a more personal service, a diversity of products and services plus adding character and colour to our town.
Mike Cherry of the Federation of Small Businesses, which focuses on Keep Trade Local says:
“We would urge people to make time in the week to go to their local high street, buy a few bits and pieces, have their hair cut, catch up on the local news and share a coffee with their friends. Shopping locally can give you a really good feeling about yourself."
Here at Thebestof Cheltenham we want to encourage you to Buy Local and are offering you the chance to win one of five daily prizes of £100 to spend in local Cheltenham businesses. All you have to do is to pledge your support for local businesses during our Buy Local campaign from 3rd-9th June. It couldn’t be easier!
