Shop local feature

Council publishes ‘wraparound’ feature to encourage residents to shop locally and support the Borough’s town centres this Christmas

The Council has published a seasonal ‘wraparound’ which appeared in the East Herts Herald newspaper.  The four-page feature is also available in the related links section on the right of this page.

The ‘wraparound’ includes details on the opening up of Hoddesdon town centre, late night shopping on 11 December and Christmas markets in Waltham Cross on 13 and 20 December 2009 between 10am and 4pm.  There is also information on additional taxi rank provision in Hoddesdon and Waltham Cross town centres and free parking on Saturdays in Council-run car parks in the Borough’s town centres. 

The feature contains details on bids for external funding to benefit town centres and signs of recovery in Waltham Cross after Home Solutions moved into the old Amy’s furniture & Homewares store in the High Street.

In addition, there is information on the new Urgent Care Centre at Cheshunt Community Hospital, developments at Hertford Regional College and the two pantomimes taking place over the festive season; ‘Peter Pan’ and ‘Cinderella’ at the Civic Hall.
