Brighouse BID launch Golden Ticket competition to encourage the community to shop local

The Golden Ticket promotion, which is now live, offers those who shop local the chance to win one of a number of prizes over the coming weeks.

A promotion designed to bring some festive cheer and support businesses facing lockdown 2.0, the BID is hoping to widely communicate the message about buying local in the run up to Christmas, while helping local businesses drive sales and remain stable following a successful footfall period over the summer months.

The promotion is supported by a number of local businesses, with each shop giving away two golden tickets with purchases made until December 3.

There are a range of fantastic prizes up for grabs, including vouchers, hampers and gift sets, making this the perfect way for shoppers to treat themselves or a loved one with something special this festive period, simply as a reward for shopping local.

Participating shops and prizes are as follows:

Flicker & Fizz – 2 goody bags

Brighouse Books - 2 vouchers

Hallmark - 2 vouchers

Feet Street Kids - 2 Playdoh advent calendars

Park Row Hair & Beauty - 2 Neal & Wolf ritual shampoo and conditioner gift sets

Websters Furniture – 1x £25 voucher, 1x £50 voucher

Earth Angel - 2 hampers

Page – 2 vouchers

Lesley Adams, Co-Chair of the Brighouse BID steering group, said: “The shop local message is so important, with local independent retailers needing the support of its local community now, more than ever. Brighouse has a diverse, wide ranging high street with everything shoppers could need all in one compact town, and with many businesses also offering home delivery, we’re well placed to make it easy for our community to shop.

“With this promotion we hope to create a campaign that thanks people for shopping locally, rather than with the big retailers and brings some joy at this time of year. With every purchase, shoppers have the chance to receive a fantastic prize, purely for showing their support to a local business. There has never been a better time to shop local.”

While many businesses have had to change the way they work, most of them remain open and are offering click and collect or delivery options to help support their customers, especially in the run up to Christmas.
