Local shops are at the heart of our communities.
It was good to visit the Association of Convenience Stores’ drop-in in Parliament last week and hear more about the contribution made by the 73 convenience stores across Bexhill and Battle.
Together, they provide 657 local jobs, offer essential goods and services, and play an important role in supporting their communities.
I’m proud to support our brilliant local shops and the people who work so hard to keep them running.
