If we apply a full social value-based approach, their economic contribution increases to nine times that calculated through traditional economic measures.

Misinformation isn't random - it's strategic. 🧵

Our latest report on community-led department stores in today's @newstatesman.com.
Only 7% of Brits will do Christmas shopping at a department store this year.
But, we think there's hope - communities are creating fresh and diverse offers on their high streets.
