THE BIT AT THE TOP WHERE WE TELL YOU ABOUT UNIQUE WAKEFIELD...
A NEW page featuring characterful and independently owned places located in the City of Wakefield and beyond. Unique Wakefield highlights some of the fab independent shops and businesses around Wakefield and encourages you to STEP INSIDE and discover them for yourself. We love places where you can slow down, take time for a chat, meet
with friends and BE SOCIABLE. Where your custom is really appreciated. The local foodie stops, cafes, restaurants, markets, shops, salons and boutiques ...
We could go on AND WE WILL! Whether you want to spend some quality time with friends and family or take some time out for yourself, Wakefield has lots to offer. We are definitely not anti-big stores or online shopping, but we are in favour of keeping our High Streets healthy. We think this can only happen by changing habits, appreciating what is on our doorstep and spending a little more with local businesses rather than spending it out of the area. Unique Wakefield is first and foremost about small local business. We are most definitely pro-Wakefield! GET INTO WAKEFIELD!! ...
We believe it is people with PASSION who really make places come to life. People who care about what they sell. People like you who care about what they buy and where they shop ... and when we have a big DOLLOP of passion for where we live, something A-MAZING happens ~ our towns and cities will BUZZ.
