Running a high street business isn’t always easy, and sometimes, it can feel a little lonely. That’s why we’ve created Shop Talk: a friendly get-together where Sunderland’s retailers and service businesses can come together, share experiences, and support one another.
This is your space to:
1. Chat openly about the challenges (and wins!) of being on the high street
2. Connect with other like-minded business owners
3. Build a stronger community of support and collaboration
No pitches, no pressure, just real conversations with people who get it.
