#OpenInLockdown

Support our local high streets this Christmas!

The run-up to Christmas is a crucial time of year for retailers. But now that a second lockdown is coinciding with part of retail’s golden quarter, local shops are under even more pressure to survive.

Our #OpenInLockdown campaign aims to raise the profile of local retailers in Derby, Nottingham & surrounding towns who are continuing to offer safe ways to shop during ‘Lockdown 2.0’ – so that you can continue to support our local high streets and economy over the Christmas period and help more local businesses get through this challenging time.

Here’s how to get involved:

  • Browse our directory of local shops who are #openinlockdown to do your Christmas shopping – or just to buy yourself a well-deserved treat!
  • Follow and share our local #openinlockdown posts on social media
  • Let us know about your favourite local shops and cafes offering click-and-collect, delivery and takeaway options.
