Two of our @West_Suffolk Bury St Edmunds market fruit & veg stalls take @NHSHealthyStart vouchers. If you are in receipt of these take them to either James Pollard or New-Bury Fruit Co. More value, more choice #supportlocal @bury_new @ourburysteds @marketsmatter

The NMTF supports traders in #Canterbury fighting for the market! ⚔️
This market serves a diverse community - vulnerable groups as well as affluent tourists.
Closing a market to beautify the streetscene is an absolute disgrace @canterburycc! 😔

Celebrating Markets is esp important for town centres as consumerism moves away from the high street. There is evidence of a shift in consumer values, towards experiences that bring happiness & well being. A bustling market is a great asset, makes you feel alive.
Thank you for sharing! 🙏

MARKETS PROMOTE SUSTAINABILITY 🥬🍅🚶♂️
Independent traders sell locally-sourced goods. Shoppers tend to walk or use public transport. Markets are affordable and flexible places to trade.
