Get ready to celebrate the heartbeat of our High Street!
Independents Week returns from 29th June to 5th July 2026, a week dedicated to championing the incredible independent businesses that give our local area its character, creativity and community spirit.
Across shops, cafés, restaurants, studios and service-based businesses, local traders are pulling out all the stops to showcase what makes them special, from unique products and bespoke services to exclusive offers and experiences you’ll only find here. Independents Week is your chance to explore, enjoy and support the people behind the places you love.
