How we check these places

We only list a business when independent, up-to-date sources agree that it is trading: its own website, the food hygiene register, its company's own list of branches, official registers such as the NHS, and OpenStreetMap. A single old record is not enough. If any source shows a place has closed, it comes off the list straight away, and each card says which sources confirmed it and when. Everything is checked again every week.

Something missing or wrong? Tell us, or see everything on the map.
