Rugby record store set to move to new premises after proving a hit in town


Just For The Record opened above Hunt’s Bookshop on High Street in 2016, building a loyal base of customers.
Vinyl collector Sally Wolanski said now is the time for the shop to move to somewhere that is more accessible to customers who struggle with stairs.

“It’s been a really good two years - we’ve had a wonderful response from the public and from our customers.
“I’d like to thank everybody for their support.”
Mrs Wolanski said some people are becoming pessimistic about the state of the town centre, but the record store’s success serves as proof that small independent businesses can still flourish in the town centre.
She said the store draws in many young customers who are drawn to the experience vinyl offers.

Free drinks and snacks will be offered at the grand opening and a £5 gift voucher (limited to one per customer) will be given with any purchase.
