Having traded in Hunstanton since January 2014 we were only too aware of how the High Street (and surrounding areas) can remain eerily quiet even when the rest of the town is buzzing with visitors. Hunstanton is a much-loved seaside resort and yet many visitors are not aware of the many hidden treasures in the form of small independent businesses away from the promenade. As we are a member of Hunstanton's Advisory Group, and it was felt that for not only the short but long term future of Hunstanton's retail business sector we wanted to create something which would achieve some key goals.
- Give visitors a reason to visit parts of Hunstanton they wouldn't normally visit.
- Encourage people to try something different.
- Ecourage indpendents to come into town. To introduce the beadth & depth of locally made Norfolk food & Drink.
- To give residents and people living locally a reason to visit the High Street and to reengage with the towns small business community.
- Discover an alternative range of products to those sold in the towns supermarkets.
- Provide a great day out not only for visitors but for those living in town.
- Deliver income for the local community which would help businesses recover and prosper.
- Encourage new businesses into town.
