Clare County Council and Local Enterprise Office (LEO) Clare have teamed up with the Clare Echo to launch a ‘support local’ campaign called Click for Clare. The message behind Click for Clare is a simple one. Support your local economy online.
Almost 200 businesses have registered on the ‘Click for Clare’ Business Directory across the county. Many of these businesses have just recently launched their online stores with brand new eCommerce websites.
Now more than ever, it is vital that we support our local businesses and in doing so, retain jobs in the County. We encourage all to consider our local shops and businesses in the lead up to Christmas and where possible, to shop local either in-store, online or through click and collect over the phone.
