CUSTOMERS have been flocking to help a Brampton eco store after it started an online crowdfunding campaign for electronic scales. Maria Stundon who runs Ria-Plenish, Refill and Eco Shop, on High Cross Street, has kickstarted the £4,000 appeal to help the business buy a state-of-the-art weighing scales to make the shopping experience at the store easier and quicker. And already wellwishers, at the time of printing, have got her £1,360 towards the target after the campaign s first week on Crowdfunder.co.uk. However the appeal is time limited and she s looking to raise the money by May 17 when the campaign is scheduled to end.

BUSINESSES throughout Cumbria have come back to life following the first week of the relaxed coronavirus restrictions. From Monday, hairdressers, nail bars, gyms, pubs and cafes with outdoor dining, and a host of other shops have been able to open for the first time this year. And shoppers have come back to high streets in droves. One of the businesses that reopened this week was The Baby Bit at Carlisle’s Market Hall, which originally started trading last August. The children’s clothing and accessories outlet is run by Rachael Gillgrass and has opened just ahead of an expected spring and summer busy period.
