We're kicking off this series in discussion with Andrew Goodacre, CEO of British Independent Retailers Association, BIRA - who have been supporting independent retailers for over 120 years. They have an incredible overview of the sector, speaking daily to their indie members about being in business, supporting them to navigate challenges in the industry as well as championing their successes. Who better, then to talk to about the sector, to provide some context, to talk about the many ups and downs of running a independent business in 2023, but to also think about the bigger picture - as we zoom out, and think about how we can weather the storm with hope, optimism and the spirit of collaboration and creativity. Our chat with Andrew is a wide-ranging one, as we talk about putting your money where your mouth is, what indies contribute to our high streets, speaking up about mental health in retail, why countless governments have dragged their heels on business rates and why investing time in our communities makes for successful high streets. If you'd like to become a BIRA member, find out more here: https://bira.co.uk/membershipAnd if you're curious about the resources on mental health that we discuss in the show, you'll find out more here: https://bira.co.uk/resources/hubsAnd information on the Retail Trust's resources in this area here: https://www.retailtrust.org.uk/your-health-and-wellbeing?navCode=677Support the show

“The Midnight Sky is a film with big scopes. We have big vistas, we're in space, we are on the moon, in the Arctic. Also, it's a very intimate film because it's a lot about connection, so we when we see people we get close to them and we feel intimate with them because we are literally with the camera quite close to them and looking into their faces. In this film, it helped that we went on 65mm. We shot on a large format. First of all we started that for the big landscapes, but I think it's great also for faces because the face also becomes like a landscape.”Martin Ruhe is the internationally-acclaimed German cinematographer behind the Netflix film The Midnight Sky directed by and starring George Clooney.

Chris Biddle is joined by Andrew Goodacre, Chief Executive of the British Independent Retailers Association (bira) for an an episode recorded the day that England entered a second national lockdown of 2020, a decision which Andrew describes as his greatest disappointment of the year to-date. With so many 'bricks and mortar' retailers having to close for 3 months during the first lockdown, but with a partial recovery underway, he says that many independent retailers were banking on making up lost ground in the run-up to Christmas. "This will mean that many small businesses will have had to close for four months this year". He questioned the decision to open garden centres who focus almost exclusively on Christmas related products rather than gardening at this time of the year, giving an unfair advantage over many small shops. However he praised the ingenuity and innovative moves by many independent retailers 'to go the customers who couldn't go to them'. "But there is still much to do, around 80% of independent retailers have websites, but only 25% have transactional facilities built in" Website: British Independent Retailers Association
