Residents encouraged to ‘Stay Local’ as retail reopens

Following the Government’s announcement confirming the reopening of non-essential retail from Monday 12th April, East Staffordshire Borough Council is encouraging residents to ‘Stay Local’ in its latest campaign to support businesses in the Borough.

 

The ‘Stay Local’ campaign, which features a range of local business owners, is designed to promote Burton and Uttoxeter town centres, as well as other high streets and shopping areas across East Staffordshire, whilst reminding residents to continue to shop safely.

 

Local businesses can download the ‘Stay Local’ resources from the Council’s website, to help promote their business and demonstrate how they are adhering to safety guidance. The campaign toolkit also features a range of assets for local residents to use to show their support. 

 

This campaign is the latest of a number of initiatives put in place by the authority to help residents stay safe during the Coronavirus pandemic, including town centre signage and the introduction of Covid marshals.
