Spreading The ‘Greats’ News

Greats winners wasted no time in contacting their local media to fanfare their success, with Aga Gabrysiak, co-owner of The Highworth Emporium, winner of the Independent Gift Retailer of the Year – East Anglia category, the first to see a story appear in the Swindon Advertiser, both in print and online, on Friday (May 17).

“We are also talking to BBC Radio Wiltshire, so fingers crossed!” Aga told GiftsandHome.net. “Plus, we’re hoping for coverage in our local town magazine which comes out in July.”
