MORE than 20 small businesses will take place in a new event in Bransgore this weekend.

Bransgore Live! will see businesses from Bransgore and surrounding area come together at Bransgore Village Hall on Saturday to showcase their products and services to local people.

It will also help raise money for the Bransgore Community First Responder team.

The event has been organised by Sarah Stephens of Oscar Pet Foods Avon and Stour.

Sarah said: “Since launching my pet food home delivery service, which I run from my home in Bransgore, I have discovered that Bransgore has a diverse and lively community of small businesses; but many local people are not aware of them.

“I decided to try and make the connection between local people and their local business community, and at the same time support the First Responders whose services are so appreciated.”

Bransgore Live! takes place between 1pm and 5pm and everyone is welcome. Entry is free and there will be complimentary refreshments, a raffle with prizes donated by the participating businesses, activities for children and the First Responders will be on hand to answer first aid questions.
