“A lot of hard work goes into making Christmas in Ribble Valley very special and this year is no exception, despite the pandemic
“We have supported business where possible throughout the pandemic and are asking local people to support local traders during these extremely challenging times for the high street.
“So forget the hustle and bustle of retail parks or hours spent online and take advantage of free parking in Clitheroe and Longridge to see what our unique, independent and safe shops have ,to offer.”
