I was born to a 20min neighbourhood. My 🏴 town had a library, hospital, surgery, police & fire station, schools, banks. Green groceries, butchers, abattoir, sweet shop, cafes, pubs, cinema, theatre, toy shop, iron mongers, milkman, deposit return, all locally owned. Then out of town retail came. End

Thank you BEYOND Conference for the opportunity share the Well-being of Future Generations Act with delegates.

Not any more, they’ve changed the recipe which has changed the taste & texture.
