SOMERSET Day 365 has launched a major initiative to help people find independent local suppliers of all types of food, drink, produce and takeaways.

The new listing is featured with an interactive map on the Somerset Day website.

Denys Rayner, chairman of Somerset Day Community Interest Company, said: “Many people have said how difficult it can be to find out where they can order, and in many cases get delivered, groceries.

"Knowing where you can buy good local produce has become even more important during the Covid-19 pandemic."

Somerset Day CIC is encouraging consumers and businesses to recommend additional businesses they know of to add to the list and these can be sent to info@somersetday.com
