THE COUNCIL is hosting a virtual Easter market, after the success of its Christmas event.

It aims to offer unique, one of a kind pieces, original art and quality produce.

From bespoke cakes to soy wax candles and custom made jewellery, visitors can browse through the page and show their interest by either liking a post or leaving a message.

The vendor will make direct contact with the buyer to complete the sale.

“Supporting local businesses is a great thing to do,” said Cllr Parry Batth, executive member for environment and leisure. “It enriches the borough’s economy and sustains employment for the people who live here.

“Our Virtual Christmas Market was much loved by residents from the area and as time went on, we knew we had to adapt, evolve and bring alternative shopping ways this spring.

It runs until Saturday, April 11.

Small crafts businesses can book an online stall by visiting the Facebook page for more information.

A one-off, fixed admin fee applies and covers admin and marketing costs.
