A chiropractor has been named Sutton, Cheam and Worcester Park's independent shop of the year.

Precision Chiropractic fended off challenges from a number of other popular retailers to take the title in the contest, organised by Sutton and Cheam Conservative prospective parliamentary candidate Paul Scully.

More than 1,300 people voted for 107 shops in the competition, with Woodward Brothers Butchers in Worcester Park, John Fraser Jenkins Hair Salon in Cheam and Alan Greenwood & Sons Funeral Directors in North Cheam making up the rest of the top four.

Mr Scully said: "The top four shows the diverse range of businesses that local people value.

"It's through this variety that our local villages can continue to offer something to people who might otherwise be attracted to bigger neighbouring shopping centres and demonstrates how different businesses can bring people in to spend money in neighbouring shops.

"Well done to every business that took to this competition in such a positive manner and thank you to everyone who took the time to vote in recognition of their favourite local shop and the work that they do to build and maintain vibrant local communities."

A voucher for £100 to spend in Precision Chiropractic has been given as a prize to a lucky voter in the poll.
