The Christmas Shop Window competition is back! In a change from previous years, we are asking the public to vote for their favourite display on social media and have included a trail into the competition to encourage footfall around town and online browsing. There are 23 shops and businesses taking part, look out for more details over on our Facebook page.
Rugby Dunsmore Rotary Club has set up a series of 30 minute Zoom calls so that children can ‘Talk to Santa’ and not miss out on the Christmas fun during the COVID-19 pandemic. All profits generated from the £5 fee will be shared 50:50 amongst local charities and the Friends of St Cross 65th anniversary appeal. Booking is available at https://www.ticketsource.co.uk/rotaryrugbydunsmore/e-oyzjyl ‘Talk to Santa’ is available on Saturdays and Sundays until 20th December in hourly slots from 2pm until 6pm.
Have you seen our latest press ad? Published in Fresh Homes & Living, the Rugby Register and on Village Emporium’s social media pages to encourage residents in Rugby and the surrounding areas to #shoplocal.
Look out for the new 70 lit mini Christmas trees, which will be placed in hanging basket holders, to give the town centre a lovely festive glow from the beginning of December.
