ECONOMY - Shopping
There are so many unanswered and searching questions about shopping locally.
Those questions might include - why are we swamped with major retailing brands, rather than independent and specialist shops? Other questions include - how can we get more independent shops on our High Streets - and more weekly town markets for quality, locally produced food? Blue sky thinking time!
We hope our curated selection of articles - presented here - will prove enlightening and thought-provoking.
A GREAT MARKET SUCCESS
WOW - tell me who doesn't want more of this community action. People do this - when allowed - not politicians! The Stroud Street Market is a booming success and we should have one in all our towns.

QUEEN OF SHOPS IN STROUD
Don't we all need more of this entrepreneurial spirit - in every town. Our local Stroud is about to get the benefit of retail guru Mary Portas. Should we start by getting our town markets thriving again?
