Charlie’s Guide has, without a doubt, been responsible for making sales. This is because people have said they have found the shop directly because of it! The great thing is, that it’s not covered with adverts.

I gave out loads last Saturday explaining that it’s the collection of shops as a whole that make Stamford the shopping destination that it is, and that some of the best shops are off the beaten track.

The idea had to have come from someone who understood the Independent sector and pull all the shops (some of whom are of course in competition with each other) together as a whole. I'm so glad you made it happen!
