Love Local Campaign

EDM number 508 in 2008-09, proposed by Timothy Farron on 20/01/2009.
Categorised under the topic of Service industries.

That this House welcomes the Love Local campaign launched by the Westmorland Gazette aimed at supporting and promoting the local community; recognises that, given the economic climate, communities have a responsibility to work together by creating a vibrant sense of community and promoting local businesses; highlights the Love Local campaign as an excellent example of how to encourage independent retailers to promote themselves and become an integral part of the local community; and urges other communities to follow suit by adopting their own Love Local campaign to support smaller businesses and energise the local economy.

This motion has been signed by a total of 25 MPs.
