Our last Days🐿️

15/01/2026

I was really disappointed to read today’s Galloway News article regarding Dalbeattie High Street, as after many years of successful trading, I simply wanted to retire quietly and with some dignity.

Red Squirrel is mentioned three times, yet the journalist (Jackie Grant) never spoke to me. The article is lazy, poor, and lame journalism. It relies on the opinion of a former business owner and a councillor who seems misinformed, without quoting any real figures, footfall data, or context.

Comparing a long term business to others that closed within months doesn’t make sense.

I feel this article is unfair and disrespectful to the many hardworking businesses in Dalbeattie who continue to trade and serve the community.

Dalbeattie High Street is undoubtedly facing struggles like every other small town in the country — but it deserves far better journalism than this.

Thanks for reading,
Charlotte.

This is a bittersweet announcement, but after much thought and a combination of circumstances, I have made the difficult decision to close.

Red Squirrel’s last day of trading will be Saturday, 24th January 2026.

I am incredibly proud to say that, thanks to the good people of Dalbeattie and to those from further afield, my little shop has been and continues to be well supported and profitable right into its 8th year.

The shop premises will be up for let via J&E Shepherd and would be a fantastic opportunity for someone wishing to carry on in a similar manner, or to use it as a blank canvas for a completely different enterprise.

Final reductions are now in place.

Thank you for all the support over the years , it has truly meant the world to me.
