 TOOLKIT LAUNCHED TO HELP RETAILERS COMBAT CREDIT CRUNCH
With the credit crunch biting, the Forest of Dean District Council in Gloucestershire has launched a free, interactive toolkit crammed with practical ideas in a timely bid to help UK towns woo shoppers back to their high streets. The toolkit, available at www.firststoplocalshop.co.uk/go/toolkit, pulls together the lessons learned from a successful three-year 'First Stop Local Shop' local retail support programme, launched after a report estimated that ?100 million was being spent outside the Forest by local people every year - known as 'retail leakage'.
