CAMBERWELL CATCH-UP

The past couple of months have been strange, to say the least, as we’ve all had to adjust to a different way of life. With self-isolation measures in place and many of us spending more time at home, we hope you’ve all managed to find creative ways to keep busy. In the meantime, many of our stores are still operating, just in different ways. The majority of restaurants and cafes are operating but are only allowed to provide home delivery, pick up or takeaway services. We encourage you to support our local food businesses as much as you can during this time – place a delivery order for dinner one evening or pick up your favourite meal, and enjoy a night off from cooking. Key supermarkets in Camberwell remain open including Woolworths, Coles and Aldi, as well as speciality food stores such as Camberwell Fresh Food Market, Coltivare, Rainbow Meats, The Source Bulk Foods and local bakeries, so you can continue to stock up on grocery items. Of course, local chemists and medical services also continue to operate so you can access the healthcare and medicine you need. And don’t forget about Camberwell’s many independently run businesses that make the precinct so unique. It’s the gift stores, bookshops, fashion boutiques, beauty salons and homeware stores that truly need your support during this time. If you have any birthdays, anniversaries or other special occasions coming up, consider purchasing a gift or voucher from one of these stores. We’d like to thank local residents for continuing to support shops in Burke Rd and the junction, and we look forward to seeing you back in our precinct when it is safe to do so.
