Love our Markets

22 May 2014

BedfordBID Bluecaps have been supporting Love Your Market Week by giving out shopping bags containing booklets giving details of Bedford: A Town of Markets.

The latest print run was sponsored by the Portas Town Team who agreed that Bedford's many markets added interest to the retail on offer to visitors from far and wide.

Love Your Local Market is a national campaign being celebrated in Bedford.

Bedford Portas Town Team were awarded £51,000 two years ago to help promote and support the High Street. The money has been spent on supporting start-ups, festivals, events and training to encourage new and support existing businesses in and around the High Street. The Portas finale will be the sponsorship of the Big High Street Showcase which is taking place on June 14th and for which the Town Team is giving Bedford Borough Council £5,000.
