A new enterprise centre which aims to help small businesses flourish is to open in Berrow this weekend.
The new ‘Craft and Enterprise Centre’ will be launched on Sunday 15th July at the Berrow Inn.
It will offer local crafters and traders a base from which to manufacture, display and sell their handmade goods.
Rob Spriggs, the landlord of The Berrow Inn, told Burnham-On-Sea.com: “The centre will open every day from 10am until late. It is the place to choose a handmade gift for someone special, a luxury item for yourself or your home or a souvenir of your holiday.”
He added: “As well as many different handmade crafts for sale there will also be a wide range of produce and local foods. You can choose from scrumptious cakes, chocolates, ice creams, chutneys and preserves and many more. It is hoped that the centre will also host regular farmers markets in the near future.”
A regular programme of demonstrations and work groups will also be run at the centre by local crafters and businesses. Local charities and community groups are also being given the chance to raise funds and awareness with free stalls available. For more information or to book an event or space at the centre call 01278 782126.
