About us
Made in Stanley, for everywhere local
Our story
A high street that never closes
Stanley sits high on the hills of north-west County Durham, a former mining town with a big heart and a lot of talent: trades people, hairdressers, cafés, mechanics, makers, cleaners, coaches and carers. Too many of them rely on word of mouth, a Facebook page, or a website that costs more each year than it earns.
We built Stanley Business so any local business can have a proper online home in minutes: a page with opening hours, a map, reviews and photos; online bookings; a shop with click & collect or delivery; offers; and quote requests from customers nearby. Businesses on Pro and Premium can even point their own web address at their page, so they get a professional website without building one.
For customers it means one place to find what’s near you, see who’s open now, book in a few taps, and support the businesses that keep our towns alive.
