The attached article was on the news today, it does seem that those High Streets that thrive are those that offer independent choice with a few chains mixed in. In Stafford we have had a number of independents open recently such as The Front Room, The new Creperie, Cafe Roma and a few others including bigger ventures like The Post House - OK it is only a start and more is needed but perhaps it is all part of an encouraging trend...?
