After the success of our #localanuary posts, where we have been championing our fantastic local shops, we’ve signed Turriff up to the Totally Locally Fiver Fest.
What’s Fiver Fest you ask?
The Totally Locally Fiver Fest is a big celebration of Britain’s fantastic small businesses and shops, many run by families or individuals, but ALL contributing massively to the economy of the UK and the wellbeing of our towns. It comes from the message about the impact that spending £5 in local businesses has on our local economy.
We’re going to facilitate Fiver Fest, distributing posters to any of our independent shops who want to join in, keeping a track of who is taking part and most importantly promoting Fiver Fest and local businesses.
