These events are designed to encourage residents and visitors to support local traders as well as showcasing local artists and crafters who will be selling a range of handmade products.

Set to be a monthly event, it will take place inside the visitor information centre inside the Court House in Jury Street.

Jayne Topham, clerk at Warwick Town Council, said: “A regular fair at St Nicholas Church had been cancelled and I am keen to support local business. The event is free to the stall holders and there is a limit of eight stalls.

“The idea is to run the event every month – there will be different stalls and it is possible to promote this with the market to give visitors a diverse range of shopping experiences.”

#Love Local’s first event will be held from 10am until 4.30pm on Saturday April 6 and will be free to enter.

Any local crafters or traders that would be interested in having a stall at future fairs should call: 01926 411694 between 8.45am and 4.45pm from Monday to Friday.
