Thank you to our Local Businesses
 
 
 

In these difficult economic times it is the small individual businesses who suffer the most, and therefore I gave them the opportunity to showcase what they have to offer on this website.  In return they donated a sample of their product as a prize in our Christmas Draw.

Please take time to look through the local businesses and, where possible, give them your support.  Remember if you don't use it you loose it!

 
Here are details on the prizes that the local businesses have been kind enough to donate.
