Sheffield could see a wave of business closures over the winter months, a retail expert warns.

By Chris BaynesHigh streets such as Sheffield's could soon be hit by a wave of closures due to the cost of living crisis and rising energy prices, an expert has warned.

"Their footfall is going down no matter what we try because people just don't have the money to spend." Samantha Parsonage, who runs Miss Samantha's Vintage second-hand clothing boutique on South Road in Walkley, Sheffield, said she planned to close down her shop by the end of January. As a result, he said he had put his shop, which also contained a deli and Post Office, up for sale at below market rate and he planned to shut up shop if he did not find a buyer before his rent agreement ran out at the end of this year."It's just getting harder and harder.
