Rye high street last Saturday. Lots of interesting shops, all with great enticing windows, fantastic customer service, events and competitions all over the place to get customers into every corner of the town. Well done Rye! #ryechristmasfestival #highstreets #independent

A good article with a realistic vision of where the high street will go and not just adding another 'Nail' in its coffin! #Retail #independent #shoplocal

We need local investment to be at the heart of whats going on as for too long there has been faceless landlords owning too many retail properties with no local connection. Thus having no connection to whats best for the local economy. #highstreet #shoplocal #retail

We are all in this together!! #retail #independent #highstreet

Happy Christmas to everyone in my network! It is time to recharge the batteries in preperation for an exciting 2020! See you all on the other side......😉

Psychic who forecast Brexit using asparagus predicts there will be a resurgence of independent retailers and smaller shops. Shop Local will start to mean something again. I may have to request 6 numbers from her for the weekend! 😀 #feedly buff.ly/2QLFGCY

Pilot areas announced as part of effort to 'rejuvenate' high streets. Excited to see how this goes!! buff.ly/2QM0FFQ #shoplocal #independent #Retail #business #Training #Believe

Nice job Bath, well done to all!! Every business that opened in Bath in 2019 and where to find them #feedly buff.ly/2QTxW1A #shoplocal #independent #retail #business #training

Fewer shoppers, more empty shops: is it the end of the road for Britain's high streets? Or once again is it time to focus on what these retailers need to do to compete in the new retail age? #Independent #Retail #business #Training buff.ly/2uZI55F

Flats over shops will breathe life into Worcester High Street. Yes i'm all for this as it will only help as part of a multi level solution. On its own it will do very little.... #Retail #shoplocal #Worcester buff.ly/2RbHx5h

I still love to waste time in a joke shop, just like when i was a 5 year old in awe looking around the joke shops in Scarborough on the family hols, i can still easily waste too much money in them. The difference now it's my money not my dads! #shoplocal buff.ly/2RuiA4c

London flat with bed next to the toilet up for rent at £1,700 pcm. The perfect pad! solves my frustrations at bumbling through the dark house in the middle of the night!

How thinking more as a collective will help us all.... #independent #retail #business #highstreet #shoplocal buff.ly/2oFidZR

Lessons from Lush... They have always done a good job at creating an interactive experience and great to see they are still leading the way showing where physical retail needs to go... #retailers #shoplocal #highstreet #britishhighstreet #feedly buff.ly/2u884YM

Wake up and smell the coffee! Totally agree great coffee shops bring people into towns and cities. You then need great independents around them to show what they have to offer #retailers #Independents #shoplocal buff.ly/2V9kXwu

Creating communities for all ages. Interesting report which shows how important building communities can be for many people within all areas. This is one way the high street can develop to offer these type of spaces. #shoplocal #retailers buff.ly/2SCoHVS

Instagram is transforming how we buy engagement rings. Great piece which is about the Jewellery industry but is valid for most retailers. 1 consistant thing they all show is the huge need for good quality images!! buff.ly/2vH2Lja
