"Its about helping people discover what's around them, and make the choice to shop local...every time."
Tom Harries set up the Edinburgh Lockdown Economy in a weekend, at the start of lockdown. His mission? Helping Edinburgh residents choose to shop locally, by listing independent businesses in one, accessible place. In a matter of months, his tiny team of mostly volunteers have created a website which now promotes over 800 local businesses.
We grabbed a quick chat with Tom, to find out a bit more about what he does – and he does it!
