High number of shop closures this year
On hearing the news about the high amount of shops closures this year was very sad but expected, where this really hurts are in smaller cities and towns, mostly the cities built around manufacture and industry destroyed by the Thatcher reign. As I was originally born and bred in one of these areas I saw firsthand, the local city councils desperately trying to prop up local economies by building new shopping centre’s and investing in retail, but these are the first places where major chains are going to closed down.
More than 12,000 independent shops are of estimated to of closed over the past year resulting in the removal of the heart and soul and more importantly the sense of community in local towns. It is easy to see how a recession can lead to many social problems as well.
