A greetings cards shop in Burnham-On-Sea has been given a stamp of approval, with the business reaching the final of a prestigious national competition.

Sentiments in The High Street has been short-listed as one of the best greeting cards retailers in the South West for this year’s RETAS, the industry’s only national awards event.

Shop manager Lauren Keen has also been nominated in the category of employee of the year. It is the second time in two years both have reached the finals of the awards.

The shop is owned by John and Karen Lyons, who have run it since April 2012. Since they took it over, they have introduced a number of niche gifts and card choices.

Mr Lyons told Burnham-on-Sea.com: “I am absolutely thrilled for us to reach the finals for the second straight year, and this reflects the tremendous effort and hard work put in by the whole team in that period.”

The overall winners will be announced at an awards event to be held on July 9th at the Dorchester Hotel in London.
