LORRAINE BREMNER McBRIDE: Exciting times for Inverness businesses in build-up to Christmas
By Lorraine Bremner McBride, director of Inverness BID
It’s an exciting month for the city centre.
The NC50 Music Festival went so well we’re delighted to hear it’ll be back next year.
We hosted our fourth annual Inverness City Centre Business Awards and the recognition was extra special as all our worthy finalists and winners, representing many businesses and charities, were chosen by the people who matter to them the most: their own customers and clients.
We’ve also just launched the Inverness City Centre Gift Card, now accepted in over 150 fantastic businesses, meaning Christmas shopping this year can be entirely stress-free as it makes the perfect gift for all ages. Plus, by choosing to support local, it brings people together and helps build a stronger, more vibrant and resilient community so it’s win-win. To find out more visit: www.invernessgiftcard.com
We’d love to hear your Gift Card stories and see your pictures so join in the conversation and tell us where you’d spend a City Centre Gift Card: #invernessloveslocal #invernesscitycentre
Coming soon – we have free events for a bit of festive fun including Elf on the Shelf in the Victorian Market on December 2 and 3 (11am-4pm) and
The Hunt for the Lost Toys QR trail from December 1-31.
Santa’s Grotto in aid of the Highland Hospice also returns to the Eastgate Shopping Centre from November 27, book in advance at: www.eastgateshopping.co.uk
