Good morning Bridgwater!

We're checking in with a little reminder that the Bridgwater Castle Market will be open today between 9 and 3, with stalls in fire street and Angel Place. It's the chance to top up on treats for the weekend. Last week Ali from Nice Buns and Sue from Taylor Made popped along to see the lovely fruit and veg man for some fruity treats.

Whilst you're in town don't forget to support the local businesses that trade in the town centre every day. They truly value your support and custom, and it's so important to .

Good morning Bridgwater!

We had a wonderful time at SomerRock last weekend. It was so fabulous to see our hometown community partying in the best possible way.

It was also lovely to see a local business trading at the festival. Terreign Clothing really made a splash with their SomerRock t-shirts and complete outdoor range. The hoodies with the fur-lined hoods and pockets were a particular hit with the town team and a few purchases may have been made!

We love showing how good it is to and prove that in every sense of the word ... The business of last weekend was definitely fun!

Good morning Bridgwater!

Today we'd like to wish Sarah and Dan the very best of luck for the 20th Anniversary weekend of SomerRock. We know how much this weekend means to them both, and how hard they work to make sure that year on year the event just gets better and better.

Tickets are available from local businesses - Soda & Rye, Styles Menswear and The Crafty Collective. Cash only purchases, plus a £1 booking fee per ticket. Or you can head to see tickets to buy online (with bigger booking fees!)

We'd recommend a visit to town to purchase as it's also Bridgwater Castle Market. 😊

Flowers and gifts from market traders, including something from The Curious Hideaway a new trader. Helen's favourite pavlova made by Ali at Nice Buns and a card from The Crafty Collective, designed by local illustrator Angie Spurgeon.

Steve truly demonstrated the power of to show .

Good morning Bridgwater!

Michelle from Kemps is one of our best roving reporters, always keen to share the local businesses she's been to and report back on the great service, food or products she's purchased.

Today it's nice to be able to turn the tables. Jess is one of the makers at The Crafty Collective. You can often spot Loony Bloonz balloons in their shop window displays.

Recently Jess realised that her engagement ring needed fixing so she popped in to see Michelle at Kemps. The result is a fully restored ring, put back to its original sparkly glory, all achieved with friendly and fabulous service.

So if you've got a well loved piece of jewellery tucked away at home that needs some tender, loving, care Kemps is the place to go.

It's good to and we love showing that .

Good morning Bridgwater!

Paul, Town Team Chair, popped into see Vanda in Alise and Louie on some town team business. He didn't leave empty handed as this lovely wooden hare sculpture has now found a new home.

Whilst we're here we'd like to give a little shout out to Paul for all he does to help keep our team connected and safe. There's not one Town Team member that doesn't do their bit to combat the anti social we and you see in our town. Our message feed means that from one end of the town to another we know if there are problems and Paul is great at either helping out at the time or popping into businesses afterwards to make sure things are reported correctly and that team members are ok.

Our discussions with the police have made it clear that when we see anti social behaviour we all have a duty to report it. To make this easier there is a QR code we can use and we've popped it in the comments section below.

We want to keep proving that
and that it pays to . We need you to help keep all the town team businesses here 😊.

Good morning Bridgwater!

Steve from Bridgwater Castle Market has visited James at Minifigmanstudios this week to discuss James becoming a market trader on a Friday in the town centre. Sometimes, even with bricks and mortar store it pays to try different ways of promoting your business and getting the word out there.

Minifigmanstudios is popular amongst town team members for unusual gifts and we admire how James can get his friends to help with promotion too. Pele popped into The Crafty Collective and was pleased to catch up with Sue, and kindly made a few purchases he didn't expect to make whilst he was there!

It's market day today so it's a great excuse to pop into town and pick up some treats for the weekend.
