What would really help shoppers of all ages is putting some blinking soap in the loos in the Dolphin centre.
It's win-win for ANE if their discounts are covered in full by the council.
Assuming non-regular or 1st time punters are happy with the service, they have the potential to become regular passengers. Paying full-whack going forward.
I would hazard a guess that those living in the areas covered by the ticket are already aware of what Darlo has (or hasn't) to offer them.
