Honiton estate agent Roger Hemming was thrilled to present the winner of a social media campaign with money to spend in the town’s The Little Shop of Seasons.
Back in November, Honiton resident Hollie Broom commented on a post promoting local high street shops and was randomly selected to win the prize, which she can finally spend now the shops are open.
The ‘Love your High Street’ campaign was hosted by the Experts in Property network of independent estate agents, of which Roger is a member, in a post which read: “Your high street needs you now more than ever! Help us celebrate your favourite wonderful small and medium size indie companies that breathe life and jobs to us all and you could win £50 to spend there.
“To enter, comment or tag your favourite local, independent high street business and tell us why they are so great. Don’t forget to also include where they are based so others can find them. It could be a gift shop, greengrocers, garden centre, boutique, cafe or pub… anything goes!”
Hollie said: “The Little Shop of Seasons is definitely one of my favourites with the most gorgeous gifts and the most delicious cakes ever! Myself and my family absolutely love it there.”
Hollie’s was one of nearly 30 comments naming favourite businesses across the region from Callington to Clevedon. Other Honiton businesses included Toast café and patisserie, Apothespa, Honiton Wine Bar and Bruv’s Bar.
The Little Shop of Seasons was delighted to hear that Hollie’s entry had won, and that she chose their shop.
Roger, owner of Roger Hemming Estate Agents, said: “Our high streets contain so many little gems, from family-run florists, boutiques, homeware and gift shops, to bakeries, bars and of course, independent estate agents. We, and everyone at the Experts in Property, are proud to support local businesses wherever possible.”
The Little Shop of Seasons is in Dolphin Court, and Roger Hemming Estate Agents is on New Street.
