Teaming up with @coldwarsteve to create an Adequate Supplies shop in #Dawley sounds like a brilliant idea #savethehighstreet #communityarts Whose in?
Dear @telfordlive Does anyone remember "when the flagship Adequate Supplies shop closed its doors on the High Street in Telford at 18 minutes past 5pm on Tuesday 1 May 1990." ? An Adequate Supplies shop in @TheDawley sounds right https://t.co/atowSvZaKr

The race will pass the Elephant and Castle @TheDawley 3 times. A shame the pub remains shut to welcome the athletes after the race.
my annual shout out for Marshalls for #Dawley's #PhoenixFlyer5km Wed 18/05/22 7:30pm Dawley High Street will be buzzing. You get to see the race go past 3x and it over pretty quick. If you can help message me. Can never have too many Marshall's on the night. @Telford_AC
