Welcome to localsupporters.net
Local networks used to be the only way people could trade, almost everything was either local or home grown. More recently we were very happy to buy cheap goods from any corner of the world, regardless of origin or distance.
Now the pendulum is swinging back. Now we prefer food that is fresh and grown locally. We prefer to buy things which have been produced by local artisans, with local materials. We prefer to use a local service or facility and support our local community. We are Local Supporters!
We prefer to buy things we can touch and examine, rather than from a catalogue or on a screen. We enjoy getting out into the community, meeting neighbours and making friends rather than surfing in isolation, then having to wait in for the delivery. We are Local Supporters!
