Here at HTWI we’re thinking about how we can support the
NFWI resolution to save the High Street.
Our local traders are important whether in shops or markets
and we want to support them. At our last
get together Emma Kay the Town Development Officer spoke to us about the
initiatives she is taking to boost Teignmouth and get more people coming into
the town and shopping there.
Do you have
any ideas about what needs to be done and how we at HTWI can support our local
shops? Add your comment and let’s get a
discussion going. We will be calling for ideas at our meeting on 10th September so have a think and share your ideas.
The main idea raised at the Cream Tea was the need for free parking in the town to make it as easy to shop
there as it is at the big supermarkets.
Do you agree and how can we put pressure on the Council to do this?
Another idea that Emma developed was that we should be proud
of the positives of living in such a great place as Teignmouth. So let’s share our experiences. Give us
your recommendations for friendly High Street businesses in Teignmouth. Who has been great and why?
I know this is nothing to do with shopping locally although it would certainly promote how Teignmouth looks. I have seen in the local paper the photo's of Frances[Dingley's]award winning garden, it is beautiful.Congratulation to Frances and Gerald
ReplyDeleteI think it is really useful to get recommendations from other people - I have recently had my house re-carpeted and I can highly recommend Peter Williams at Pellew Carpets in Pellew Arcade, Teignmouth. The choice was huge, the service fantastic and the cost not too frightening. I got this as a recommendation from Angela Purnell and I did appreciate it as I was not sure where to go. It is so easy to get ripped off or have shoddy work done unless you know from someone else that a good job was done. So thanks Angela and thanks Pellew Carpets!
