Spotlight on Christmas shopping locally #LoveLiveLocal

This Christmas the Council has been shining a light on shopping locally.

To showcase the wealth of great local shops on the county’s high streets, the Council has been continuing its #LoveLiveLocal campaign.

As part of the campaign, anyone who used the hashtag to post pictures of local purchases on social media in November was entered into a competition to win one of three sets of family tickets to see Peter Pan at the Pavilion Theatre, Rhyl this Christmas.

The Council-led campaign aims to encourage shopping at local businesses within the county.

By encouraging shoppers to share pictures and comments of good experiences in the county, the campaign aims to highlight the wealth of shops offering a friendly and professional service.

Supporting local businesses is one of the Council’s top priorities under its Economic and Community Ambition Programme which aims to boost the local economy.

Leader of the Council, Councillor Hugh Evans OBE, said: “Shoppers don’t have to leave the county to get what they need for Christmas, everything from bespoke gifts to everyday essentials are all available right here in Denbighshire.

“We want local people in Denbighshire to think about visiting their local shops before shopping online or visiting shops outside of the county.”
