Southport BID is calling for local people to invest in their town and support local businesses when they reopen from Monday (12 April).

‘Step 2’ of the easing of national Covid-19 restrictions will see scores of places able to welcome customers after being forced to close over the winter months. 

They include all retail, charity shops, showrooms, car washes, hairdressers, beauty salons, tattoo studios, spas, tanning salons, gyms, outdoor hospitality, attractions including Southport Pleasureland and parts of The Atkinson and others. 

Southport BID CEO Rachel Fitzgerald said: “Everyone in Southport is excited to see so many of our businesses reopening after being closed for so many months. 

“These have been a very challenging few months for our local business owners and they will need huge support from local people now they are finally able to welcome back customers. 

“People need to really invest in their town and to shop local, eat local and spend local wherever and whenever they can. 

“We need a spirit of unity and collective ownership in Southport. 

 “Over these past few weeks local business owners have been working incredibly hard to make changes to their premises, particularly in the hospitality sector. People will be able to enjoy seeing much more outdoor facilities such as outdoor furniture, lighting and marquees. 

“Traders I have spoken to have also told me about the extensive measures they have been putting in place to ensure that their premises and the systems they have are Covid secure, to give customers the confidence they need to return. 

“It will be fantastic to see life return to Southport from Monday. Please give our local businesses every support you can, our town is only as good as we all make it.” 

During lockdown, Southport BID completed its impressive project to transform the mile-long Lord Street into “a boulevard of light” to provide a beautiful environment for people enjoying Southport town centre at night.

New legislation allows shops to open until 10pm if they wish while restaurants, cafes and bars are now allowed to open outside, without the need for substantial meals, and without curfew. 

A total of 300,000 lights have been installed across 80 trees on Lord Street with Southport BID contracting Southport firm Illumidex UK Ltd to carry out the work. 

Work is continuing on the new look Southport Market, with a food, drink and events focus, with the grand opening taking place in the next few weeks.

    Thanks for the helpful post. It is also my opinion that mesothelioma has an particularly long latency interval, which means that the signs of the disease would possibly not emerge till 30 to 50 years after the primary exposure to asbestos fiber. Pleural mesothelioma, that is the most common variety and affects the area throughout the lungs, might result in shortness of breath, chest pains, along with a persistent cough, which may lead to coughing up our blood.

    It is my belief that mesothelioma can be the most dangerous cancer. It contains unusual features. The more I look at it a lot more I am certain it does not act like a real solid human cancer. If perhaps mesothelioma is actually a rogue viral infection, so there is the possibility of developing a vaccine plus offering vaccination for asbestos open people who are open to high risk associated with developing long run asbestos linked malignancies. Thanks for sharing your ideas about this important ailment.

  25. I have acquired some new items from your web site about desktops. Another thing I’ve always considered is that computer systems have become something that each home must have for many people reasons. They supply you with convenient ways to organize households, pay bills, search for information, study, tune in to music and in some cases watch tv series. An innovative strategy to complete many of these tasks is by using a computer. These pc’s are mobile, small, potent and lightweight.

    One thing I have actually noticed is there are plenty of misguided beliefs regarding the lenders intentions while talking about property foreclosure. One delusion in particular is the fact that the bank prefers to have your house. The financial institution wants your dollars, not your home. They want the bucks they loaned you along with interest. Steering clear of the bank is only going to draw some sort of foreclosed summary. Thanks for your post.

    One thing is always that one of the most popular incentives for using your credit card is a cash-back or maybe rebate present. Generally, you’ll have access to 1-5 back in various acquisitions. Depending on the cards, you may get 1 again on most acquisitions, and 5 back again on buying made using convenience stores, gas stations, grocery stores along with ‘member merchants’.
