West Sussex Buy With Confidence scheme teams up with Which?

THE Buy With Confidence scheme run by West Sussex County Council Trading Standards Service to protect consumers from rogue traders has forged a link with Which?

The UK’s largest consumer group is promoting good businesses and trades people through the development of Which? Local, a recommendation website for Which? subscribers.

Which? Local has agreed with West Sussex Trading Standards Service to list for free all of its Buy With Confidence members on the site.

Peter Evans, County Council Cabinet Member for Public Protection, said: “Although Which? is best known for testing household products, it is also committed to helping people find reliable local businesses that provide an excellent service – just like our Buy With Confidence members.

“This is an excellent opportunity for our Buy With Confidence members to further promote their business because it highlights how highly regarded our members are.

“It also underlines the effectiveness of the vetting procedures our Trading Standards Service has in place to reassure customers seeking a business they can trust.

“This means being featured on Which? Local adds further value to joining our Buy With Confidence register and being a trader or business that can reassure potential customers they’ve been approved by West Sussex Trading Standards.”

To apply for membership, traders can go to www.westsussex.gov.uk/tradingstandards or call 01243 642124.
