Christmas Late Night Shopping in Bewdley
Late night shopping returns to Bewdley every Wednesday throughout December this year with many of the town’s independent retailers taking part opening till 8pm.
This new initiative from Shop, Eat, Sleep Bewdley, a group created by the town’s independent businesses, will be the first activity being run to help boost the town’s profile as a shopping destination with many more events planned for 2018.
Jon May, spokesperson for Shop, Eat, Sleep Bewdley, said, ‘There are so many new and established independent retailers in our town who really depend on local people, even more so at Christmas time. With free parking from 4pm and shops crammed full with unusual Christmas gifts, what better reason is there to shop local this year.’ Remember to ‘LIKE’ Shop, Eat, Sleep Bewdley on Facebook to find out more about the shops taking part and other activity taking place during December.
