With the Love Local, Spend Local campaign we are asking our residents to make a conscious decision to spend a little extra every month with local businesses.
The idea is that a small change by many people makes a big difference. For example, if each adult in Broadland and South Norfolk spent an extra £5 a month with local shops and businesses, this would add £1 million per month to our local economy. This small change in behaviour can make a big difference in supporting local businesses and jobs, and ensuring our high streets, shops and villages continue to offer us all great products and shopping experiences. The data behind this is on this website page https://www.southnorfolkandbroadland.gov.uk/communities/love-local-spend-local
The campaign includes:
· Opportunities to win a £50 voucher with a favourite independent business through regular social media prize draws during 2022
· Social media campaign offering inspiration on local businesses and local products
· Shops will be able to hand out free branded bags
· Branded posters for shops are due for circulation
There are four stages to the campaign:
