Independents’ Day Today – Support Your Local Shops

Today is Indepedents’ Day, when Hackney residents are being encouraged to choose local, independent shops for their shopping.

Here in Stoke Newington we have an incredible diversity of shops to choose from and many of these businesses are really suffering through a combination of the economic climate and the influx of supermarkets into the area.

They need your support now more than ever, so please try and do as much of your shopping in independents as possible today (and every day) and help to keep the area’s character and economy vibrant and strong.

Check out the Hackney Citizen’s article on the day in Hackney.
