The Crossing - Steve Hutchins

We are committed to adapting to the changing times and embracing technology to make the Directory more accessible and user-friendly for all!

So, with this in mind, the online version of the Directory is available in magazine format with clickable links to business’ websites and makes it much more accessible to a wider audience. It’s also convenient for businesses to have their information easily accessible online and downloadable for future reference.

This approach offers the best of both worlds – a tangible book for those who prefer a traditional approach, and an online version for when you’re out and about.

Reducing plastic waste is becoming increasingly important in today's world, as plastic pollution has a significant impact on the environment and wildlife.

By creating a plastic-free Directory, we are not only reducing the amount of plastic waste produced, we are taking important steps towards environmental sustainability. We also hope to set a positive example for other businesses and individuals to follow.
