About YouK

Supporting UK jobs, our public services and the environment

How your shopping can change the UK

Shopping locally and nationally results in thriving UK businesses, stronger local communities, reduced dependence on imports, lower product miles, your money kept in the UK, and a growing economy that can afford better schools, hospitals and social care.

Buying as local as possible lowers your impact on the environment

Every purchase of goods ‘made in the UK’ helps support UK jobs

In turn, the taxes paid by workers and companies pays for UK public services
