The Knutsford voucher scheme was launched in November 2020 and has proved extremely popular with over £10,000 worth of vouchers bought since 2020.
The idea behind the scheme is simple – don’t buy an Amazon voucher, buy a gift voucher that can be spent in Knutsford and goes direct to local shop owners and into the town’s local economy.
The voucher is accepted in around 50 Knutsford businesses ranging from toy shops to pubs to butcher and fruit and vegetable shops. However, the Town Council would love more to join the scheme and are urging the newer businesses to get in touch.
Sandra Curties, Knutsford Town Council’s Town Centre Manager, said, “The voucher scheme is simply run and works alongside the shops’ own schemes. We do not take commission and pay the shop back in full the value of every voucher collected. It is easy to join but we’d love to see more shops accepting them as it helps showcase the variety of choice in our town”.
A full list of business accepting the voucher can be found on the town council’s website alongside how to purchase vouchers.
If any Knutsford based business is interested in the scheme, they should contact Sandra Curties on:
01565 653929
Please note only Knutsford -based shops (not surrounding villages) can take the vouchers.
Vouchers can be purchased on the Town Council website or from the Town Council offices.
