SUPPORTING LOCAL BUSINESSES

The past year has been a very difficult one for small businesses with non-essential shops, pubs, restaurants, hairdressers and beauty salons spending so much of the year closed. Though 2021 promises to be a better year, we are not out of the woods yet.  In this third national lockdown non-essential shops, restaurants, pubs and other hospitality venues are being severely impacted again.

We are very fortunate to have a wide variety of independent shops, restaurants and services all right here in Kew. Let’s make sure they come through this difficult period intact. Please support them whenever possible so that we help keep the businesses we all love right here in Kew.

Our local shops are finding creative ways to support the communities that rely on them and many shops have set up websites to take online orders and some will even deliver to your door. So before you automatically go to a large online company perhaps consider whether you can find what you want closer to home. Even though pubs and restaurants are closed many are offering a takeaway and or delivery service.

If we want to keep the unique character of Kew intact we need to continue to show support for our local businesses to keep our wonderful community alive. So please do what you can to Shop Local.

Here is a List of Independent Local Businesses

Detailed below are some useful links to local organisations. Please contact us to suggest other changes or additions.
