Jane Hunt MP and Loughborough Chamber launch this year’s Best Dressed Window Competition

Loughborough Chamber of Trade & Commerce and Jane Hunt MP have yet again joined forces to host this year’s Loughborough Best Dressed Window Competition. Following the success of last year’s competition, it has returned, and Jane is hoping that it will provide some Christmas cheer to the town. The competition aims to celebrate independent traders in Loughborough and the surrounding area.

Open to all independent traders locally, the competition will be judged by a local panel on Small Business Saturday, which this year falls on 4th December. Businesses are asked to decorate their windows in a festive theme and make them as bright and colourful as possible! It’s an opportunity to showcase the best our area has to offer and the diverse range of business. Last year, the competition was won by the Baxter’s Tea Room in Baxter Gate.

Jane Hunt MP commented:

“Last year was a challenging time for our local independent traders. Shortly before the competition, shops were forced to shut as we continued to tackle the coronavirus pandemic. Despite this, Loughborough’s shops put on an incredible display and there were some fantastic entries.

“This year promises to be a bumper festive period for our local independents and I am sure there will be an enthusiasm to dress their windows for Christmas. I am looking forward to seeing some stunning windows!”

Dermot Breen of Loughborough Chamber of Trade & Commerce said:

“This is a wonderful opportunity for shops to showcase their wares and bring a ray of sunshine to the Christmas Season.”

Register your entry by emailing a photo to: [email protected]. Entries will then be judged by the panel who will reveal the winner shortly afterwards and award the winning business with their trophy.

Register before December 4th to be included.
