When the Harrogate Advertiser launched its #supportourindies campaign, designed to shine the spotlight on our vast array of independent shops, cafes and traders we had no idea we would get such a phenomenal response from the town's leaders and businesse

Why Harrogate's recovery depends on town's independent shops and businesses

With the rules of Lockdown 2.0 a little gentler on businesses than the first one - #supportourindies campaign is designed to shine the spotlight on our local independent shops, cafes, bars and traders still offering an online or takeaways services.

The Fat Badger bar on Cold Bath Road, for example, has just launched a brand-new takeaway classics and Sunday roasts menu, ready for collection or delivery today via: https://www.thefatbadgerharrogate.com/home/takeaway/

Still trading for takeaways - Natasha Hawkes and Cheryl Wilsher of Rafi's Spice Box, who are members of Commercial Street Retailers Group in Harrogate.

Today, Thursday, November 12, we are publishing a list (as best we can) of Harrogate town centre businesses still trading in a Covid-safe way.

Please be warned, it is by no means definitive.

If your business is still trading and is NOT on our list and you would like to be featured, please get in touch with us.
