Looking forward to taking part this Sunday after missing Junes! Please come along
Your Sunday could change 20 people’s week.
Running a small business isn’t for the faint-hearted at the moment.
Every week seems to bring another cost, another bill or another reason why independent businesses are finding it harder to survive. It would be very easy to wonder if it’s worth it.
But then Sunday comes around.
More than 20 brilliant local businesses load up their cars, set up their gazebos and spend the day hoping people choose them over another click on a big online retailer.
That’s why we run the Kiwi Craft Market.
Is it to support local businesses? Absolutely.
Is it also because we’d much rather spend a Sunday wandering around talented local makers than another row of identical shops? Also yes.
We wanted to create the kind of market we’d actually want to visit. Somewhere you can discover businesses you’ve never heard of, chat to the people behind them, grab a coffee, listen to live music and leave with something that has a story behind it.
If you’ve ever said you wish Cheltenham had more independent shops, more makers or a High Street with a bit more character, this is your chance to help make that happen.
Join us this Sunday.
The Kiwi Craft Market
Sunday 26th July
10:30am to 3pm
The driveway outside Normandy House, High Street, Cheltenham.
Free entry.
Every purchase is a vote for the kind of High Street you want to have.
