East Devon District Council has launched a new campaign encouraging people to shop locally after the easing of more Covid-19 restrictions today (Monday, April 12).
Residents are encouraged to 'rediscover' the high street and support local businesses.
Chief Executive of East Devon District Council, Mark Williams, said: "Retailers in East Devon have worked incredibly hard during the national lockdown to create Covid-secure shopping experiences so that products and services can be accessed safely.
"We are now calling on local residents to rediscover their high street, remain local and stay safe whilst also supporting the multitude of great independent businesses on offer."
The district council has also installed hand sanitiser stations, introduced safety signs, and put markings on pavements in an effort to improve public safety.
