Picture by Michal Wachucik / Abermedia AFTER an incredibly tough year this has been a make or break Christmas for many of our local businesses. Sadly, with the likelihood of us being locked into at least Level 3 for much of January given the relaxation of domestic visiting restrictions over Christmas, businesses, the economy and the jobs they support are still far from being out of the woods. Six months ago Aberdeen and Grampian Chamber of Commerce launched an initiative to help people ‘support local’. North East Now was born out of an urgent need to help businesses across our towns and city to cope with the crushing financial impact of the coronavirus.
