Bromsgrove Editorial 3rd Dec, 2020 Updated: 3rd Dec, 2020   0

AS BROMSGROVE’S Christmas Market cannot be held this year the town’s traders who usually have stalls are selling their homemade produce, gifts and decorations online.

Since 2015, Jo Slade and the Friends of St John’s have organised the annual event in conjunction with the lights switch-on in the High Street.

She said: “Sadly, a lot of festive events which see our local crafters and creators able to display and sell their wares have been cancelled.

“The traders have risen to the challenge and made their products available online so Bromsgrove residents can still shop local this Christmas.”




Here are ‘oodles of unusual and unique gifts and goodies available’, all lovingly made by local independent traders…..
