Keep it Local Partnership!

 
Anne started Keep it Local events in 2012.  As a silversmith, she was becoming disheartened with attending events where the footfall was poor and the level of competition was vast - the organisers booking too many stallholders of the same genre.  The very first Keep it Local craft fair was held in the lecture room at Coolings with just 15 unique stallholders, many of whom still book with us now.  Sally (Anne’s daughter) has been supporting us with the fairs since 2013 and she is now on board to run the events with us on an permanent basis, so “Keep it Local” is officially a partnership!  It is important to us that we are on hand to support you throughout the event - whether you are a vistor or stallholder, so look out for our banner:
