Hyndburn Shop Local Campaign

Accrington’s town centre businesses are set to come together as part of an exciting campaign to encourage Hyndburn residents to shop locally in Accrington Town Centre.

The campaign is being spearheaded by Hyndburn Council following the success of a similar high street project in Oswaldtwistle.

An interactive leaflet featuring video clips will involve businesses - shops, cafes, restaurants and services in the town encouraging them to promote their business.

The leaflet will be designed and produced by Scott Dawson Advertising, the agency behind the Oswaldtwistle campaign and distributed to all households across Hyndburn.

Cllr Clare Pritchard said: “Accrington is full of fantastic places to shop, eat, relax and learn – we’re taking a proactive approach to spread the word and inspire people to support their local businesses rather than travelling further afield when there’s so much right here on their doorstep.

“I’d urge all of our town centre businesses to come on board – it’s a wonderful platform for them to showcase the great products and services they offer.”

A short promotional video of every business will be included in the campaign – the video will feature in the leaflet, along with professional photography, via a QR code.

Any Accrington businesses who would like to be included in the flyer can contact Sue Lawson at Scott Dawson Advertising on 01282 426846 or sue@scottdawson.co.uk or Rob Grigorjevs on 01254 388111 or rob.grigorjevs@hyndburnbc.gov.uk
