You may do a maximum of 3 Indoor Craft fairs a year and all items at these events must be handmade or have an element of creativity applied by the vendor.
Children’s Workshops and Family Fun Days have a wider scope of products.
the origins
Started 6 years ago by Liz and Claire, the markets started off originally as tabletop sales which quickly grew to the Craft Markets and Fairs you see today…
The Markets are a community project, meant to engage all members of the local area. We very much support the Shop Local philosophy. Since the COVID Pandemic our Markets have become a lifeline to both local sellers and our customers. Our team worked hard to ensure that all our events were COVID safe during a time that events were being cancelled our model for holding these events was so secure that we were still able to run our December 2020 markets despite Tier 3 lockdown restrictions.
Meet the team
Liz
Founder and Organiser
“I deal with finding the venue, vendors, and all associated paperwork. I arrange the method statements and risk assessments for the venue, vendors and customers. Printing of banners, posters, leaflets etc and arranging with local shops to display”
Claire
Co-Organiser
“I met Liz 6 years ago when she put up a post saying she was looking to organise a community indoor boot/craft fair and wanted help to organise. My role is generally to plan the layout of venue and allocation of stalls/pitches.”
Kate
Co-Organiser
“I basically do the social media and the advertising and come the day of the markets i help mark out the pitches with the team. I also check in on the stall holders making sure everyone is happy and ensuring everyone is COVID safe and ready for all the visitors”
Diane
Co-Organiser
“I am more of the general helper with my husband Scott and our kids, helping with putting marques up and taking down and setting up. During the inside markets, we help with posters outside of the venue and tidying away (generally helping where we can). I love being part of a team of lovely ladies/ families and great friends”
