Today a scheme was launched in one Shropshire town aimed at | :00:43. | :00:45. | |
encouraging people to shop locally and support independent bushnesses. | :00:46. | :00:48. | |
The small town of Broseley in Shropshire has declared | :00:49. | :00:53. | |
After years of hard times on the high street, independent businesses | :00:54. | :00:59. | |
have launched the Totally Locally scheme, encouraging local pdople to | :01:00. | :01:02. | |
I think Broseley is doing rdally well. We've still got the | :01:03. | :01:07. | |
traditional butcher, baker, greengrocer, florist. | :01:08. | :01:09. | |
Broseley is well supported by its local people, | :01:10. | :01:12. | |
but we still want to make stre people are aware of what we do. | :01:13. | :01:15. | |
In recent times, many big n`mes on our high streets have gone | :01:16. | :01:18. | |
under, but for smaller business owners there is some good ndws. | :01:19. | :01:22. | |
According to the Independent Retailers' Association, | :01:23. | :01:25. | |
shops in the Midlands have seen a sustained period of growth in | :01:26. | :01:28. | |
recent months and it is shops like this which sell DIY and hardware | :01:29. | :01:32. | |
This retailer is cautious about a recovery. | :01:33. | :01:36. | |
James Hurdley's worked here for more than 60 years. | :01:37. | :01:40. | |
If we are here in two years' time, it will be a surprise. | :01:41. | :01:45. | |
It is not as good as what pdople ` we make it look good. | :01:46. | :01:48. | |
If the scheme in Broseley is successful, it is hoped it will be | :01:49. | :01:56. | |

Hundreds gathered in Stoke`on`Trent today for an event organised | :02:30. | :02:33. | |
by the BBC to mark the centdnary of the First World War. | :02:34. | :02:36. | |
For many it was a chance to find out more about their familids | :02:37. | :02:40. | |
Ann Ryle's grandfather was a soldier in the First World War. | :02:41. | :02:48. | |
But she only heard stories about him. | :02:49. | :02:50. | |
He left the Army in 1925, btt then re`enlisted on 3rd October 0939 | :02:51. | :02:58. | |
Dozens like her came to Kings Hall today hoping to find out how | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
their families were involved in the First World War. | :03:03. | :03:06. | |
My granddad looked after me when I was a child and made me laugh. | :03:07. | :03:15. | |
Armed with medals, pictures and sometimes just a name, | :03:16. | :03:19. | |
they wanted to piece togethdr the history and memories th`t have | :03:20. | :03:23. | |
People are coming in with qtite a lot of information | :03:24. | :03:28. | |
about their relatives, they had done a lot of research, but they won t | :03:29. | :03:31. | |
necessarily understand the subtle military detail. | :03:32. | :03:33. | |
It's a question for those sort of people, interpreting what | :03:34. | :03:36. | |
the records say so they can understand what their relathves did | :03:37. | :03:40. | |
Many survivors never spoke of their experiences. | :03:41. | :03:48. | |
For people like Ann, today gave them a chance to ensure | :03:49. | :03:51. | |
We found out he fought in France as well, which I never knew before. | :03:52. | :04:03. | |
Let's have a look at the we`ther. Here's Wendy Hurrell. | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
It's very nice to see so much sunshine on the longest day | :04:08. | :04:11. | |
The fine weather continues through the night, | :04:12. | :04:14. | |
It looks like it'll be mild for most of us ` | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
A lovely evening at out there, at the moment or most of us, and | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
through the night you can sde a bit of patchy cloud here and thdre. | :04:23. | :04:24. | |
In rural spots, we might slip into single fhgures, | :04:25. | :04:27. | |
but many places tonight, certainly in urban areas, 12 or 13 Celsius. | :04:28. | :04:31. | |
We start the day tomorrow still with those bright skies. | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
I think there is going to bd more cloud than today, | :04:35. | :04:37. | |
just drifting around spoiling the sunshine from time to thme. | :04:38. | :04:40. | |
But we will still get temperatures up to 22 or 23 degrees | :04:41. | :04:43. | |
in a spot like Gloucester as we go through tomorrow afternoon. | :04:44. | :04:46. | |
A risk of a shower, but they will be isolated and then | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
We're back with our next bulletin at a 7.15pm tomorrow. Bye for now. | :04:51. | :05:16. | |
For the majority of the British Isles, today has wrought long spells | :05:17. | :05:21. | |
of warm sunshine and it is the longest day. There is plenty more to | :05:22. | :05:27. | |
come this evening, and yet more on the cards for tomorrow. For many of | :05:28. | :05:31. | |
us, the changes between today and tomorrow are very slight. Northern | :05:32. | :05:36. | |
Scotland has been an exception. Tonight, thick cloud is pushing in | :05:37. | :05:42. | |
here again. Rain in the Highland and crossing into the Murray for by | :05:43. | :05:43. | |
dawn. -- the Moret Firth. For northern Scotland, great | :05:44. | :05:54. | |
prospects again on Sunday. If anything, some heavier and more | :05:55. | :05:59. | |
persistent rain. For the south, though, plenty of | :06:00. | :06:04. |
