       Hello, I've been working with local traders

       Hello
       I'm Martin and I would like to introduce myself to my local
       traders as someone who's been working with Gloucester Road
       independent businesses for the last year.
       I have been helping review waste and energy issues to assist
       traders to reduce waste, save money and get more for your
       business. For example I've worked with Clean Bean, Blue Lagoon,
       The Fish Shop - variously looking at recycling of waste, how
       much appliances cost to run (to ensure reduced running costs and
       more efficient equipment) and also signposting some limited
       grants aimed at local small businesses. I also signposted some
       tax savings that can be made from efficient replacement
       equipment.
       I hope some of this is helpful to members and after meeting some
       of you I was invited to join the (previous) email group so I
       could occasionally keep in touch. I also helped pilot the
       Bristol Pound last year with Gloucester Road £B members.
       I live in St Andrews, but also helped set up the Stokes Croft
       Traders Food waste and Recycling service for cafes and
       restaurants with unavoidable food waste. This has gained some
       very positive attention for traders there and been of interest
       to several other groups of local traders in the city.
       I hope I can continue to support local businesses and assist
       traders with making the best use of the resources you use. Feel
       free to call me on 07905340972 if I can help.
