🧶 TRADER HIGHLIGHT:
🧵Loose Ends Designs 🧵🧶

✨️We’re delighted to shine a little spotlight on Louise from Loose Ends Designs, who has been part of Emsworth Loves Local for quite a few years now. ❤️

Louise creates beautiful handmade textile gifts and is especially talented when it comes to crochet. Her work is full of the care, creativity and individuality that makes handmade so special.

This year has been a challenging one for Louise health-wise, but she still manages to turn up at most of our markets with her lovely smile, cheery chat and positive spirit — and we’re always so pleased to see her!

Louise is also one of our ELL Ambassadors and has been a wonderful supporter of our community over the years. She has helped us raise money for our charity partners and is an absolute whizz when it comes to social media, helping us spread the word about our markets. 📱❤️

We’re really looking forward to seeing what gorgeous creations Louise will be bringing along to our market next weekend!

👉If you’d like to find out more about Loose Ends Designs, you can find Louise’s details in our trader directory on the Emsworth Loves Local website.

With Flintstones – we just got recognised as one of their top fans! 🎉
We love this cafe and ice-cream shop in Emsworth. The perfect pit stop on a walk around the Millpond. 🍦🍧☕️

Please share. Thank you.

The heat warnings in place across our area mean that the risk of outdoor fire is extremely high, not just out in the countryside, but also in the greenspaces within our towns and cities.

If you're meeting friends on the Common, planning a picnic in your local park, or taking a stroll on the beach, we ask that you help us prevent devastating fires.

Campfires and bonfires are banned in certain locations, so check local guidance, and think twice before lighting.

Ensure smoking materials are fully extinguished and that you take your litter home with you.
