Here for you - supporting local businesses
Keeping the pound in town shop and eat local The pandemic has led many of us to shop online even for basic necessities, but there’s lots of good reasons to shop and eat local. Every time you shop or eat local you are supporting the local economy, keeping local people in jobs and helping the environment as it doesn’t involve deliveries, particularly if you are able to walk or get there by bike or an electric scooter. It is also an opportunity for social interaction, so important for our mental health, and thanks to measures taken by the council and retailers, it’s safe! You just need to remember to wear your face mask inside any shops and socially distance. Here is our quick guide to what is in four of the town’s neighbourhood shopping centres. We will be featuring more areas in the winter edition of Harlow Times out in December.
