RYE traders are without a united voice following last month’s winding up of the Rye Beach Business Association.
Its former secretary, marketing and business coordinator Jeanne Anderson – the association’s only paid employee – said a lack of support from members, who at one stage numbered 130, had caused its demise.
“We could not run it without their support,” she said, adding that only one trader had turned up for the final meeting on Thursday 8 April.
