Love Your Independents Valentines Day

Love Your Independents Valentines Day

We designed and delivered this event to direct customers to the independent shopping area of Uxbridge, which is slightly off the main high street. On Valentines Day, during half term, we set up a pop up fete, with fun games like ‘Beat the Buzzer’ and ‘Spin the Wheel’ where anybody could win shopping vouchers, chocolates and roses supplied by local independent retailers.

We commissioned a local artist to make a set of numbered hearts to place in 15 shop windows for a retail trail; over 500 people participated to win a chocolate heart.

With music by Elle and the Pocket Belle singers and a visit from the love bunny costume character the day was a huge success. 1000 People of all ages participated in this fabulously fun and positive community event.

For Hillingdon Council, with Uxbridge BID and local independent businesses.
