We have Manor Royal - one of the biggest Business Improvement Districts in the country.

We have Gareth Southgate, the England manager and former Crawley schoolboy who has made us love the national team once again.

And of course, we have County Mall Shopping Centre at the heart of the town.

The mall is not just a destination for Crawley residents, but for people far and wide in Sussex who come over for the huge selection of shopping and eateries on offer. And we are going to be there on Thursday July 8 and July 15 so you can come and meet editor Mark Dunford and reporter Matt Pole and discuss the Crawley Observer. We will be there from 9am until mid afternoon. So come and say hello.

The Mall opened in 1992 and has evolved over the years and has seen plenty of shops come and go.

And obviously over the last 16 months it’s seen lots of change and had months without being open. And one of the main attractions, a three-storey Debenhams, shut down earlier this year.

However, we are now nearing normality as we near ‘Freedom Day’.

So what does County Mall have to offer?

Well, on the shopping front there is so much variety.

For clothing there are so many options: Primark, Brother2Brother, Jack Jones, Moss Bros, Apricot, Next, River Island, Roman, Superdry and more.

For the youngsters there is The Entertainer and Toy Barnhaus and new addition Mr Simms sweet shop - but let’s be honest, that last one is for all of us!

B&M Bargains has also been a great addition to the Mall in the last couple of years.

And as well of those you still have Boots, the Card Factory, H Samuel, Deichmann, Smiggle, JD Sports, Clarks and iStore, Robert Dyas, Vodafone, Claire’s Accessories, Mankind, Holland & Barrett, the Perfume Shop and much more.

Where can I eat and drink in County Mall?

There are so many options to eat in the mall that you could have breakfast, lunch, dinner and a snack if you were so inclined.

The Italian Kitchen offers great meals as does Cafe Giardino in the food court, where you also have the choice of Burger King, Chopstix Noodle Bar, Subway and Costa.

There is also Baskins Robins, Millie’s Cookies, Krispy Creme and Shakeaway for those looking for something sweeter.

It is a remarkable choice of shopping in Crawley town centre, and we have not even left the Mall.

Shops and town centres have had a tough time - as have we all - in the last 16 months and it’s time to support the local economony and County Mall.
