HS Stratford City & I...


It’s hard not to be sucked into the excitement and buzz surrounding the Olympics at the moment and for me, I was certainly no exception. If I could have had a union jack cape, flag, hat, shoes you name it I would have had it all to show my support for Team GB! As soon as I stepped off the train at Stratford, I was completely taken a back by the amazing sights that surrounded me and it’s hard not to come over all patriotic! 

As we are lucky enough to have a store right at the heart of the Olympics at Westfield Stratford City, it was a must for a visit to see what it’s like being at the fore front of such a historical event! 

Our great range of Olympic coins were a winner with many visitors shopping in the centre, whether it be the athletes themselves or tourists wanting to take a little bit of London 2012 home with them! It was great meeting so many different people, and one of the brilliant things HS Stratford are doing at the moment is having a snap shot with any athletes coming into store, a great way to make everyone feel welcome! 

Great conversations were had and it was fascinating to see the people that are representing their countries in such a great way. Unfortunately, I didn’t get to meet any members of Team GB but I was lucky enough to meet a male gymnast from the Australian team, whose proud parents purchased some gymnastic coins to take back home for their family and friends! 


And amongst all of the sporting buzz around there was still some time for a love story to make its appearance, with a gentleman who purchased a beautiful engagement ring for his fiancĂ©e with an extra special touch in the form of a Basket Ball Olympic coin! The ring will be presented with this piece of memorabilia to mark not only her favourite sport but also the fact they got engaged over such a prominent time in our history! Safe to say they will always remember London 2012! This was a lovely end to my day and I am definitely one hundred percent proud of the Olympics being hosted in our wonderful city and was great to see such a buzz created within our very own store!
