Introduce yourself and your store.Hi, I'm Gayle and and own Willow Boutique in Stockbridge, Edinburgh. I sell babywear, toys, womenswear, gifts and cards.
At this time of year, small independent businesses and those on our high street need the support of customers. It's easy to shop online with the big retailers. You know who I mean and I'm guilty of it too for the convenience. But spare a thought for how you can shop local and support your community.
