How Sponsorship Supports the Community

Your sponsorship directly contributes to creating opportunities for small businesses, individuals, and emerging entrepreneurs, while also benefiting the wider community. Here’s how your support makes a real impact:
Keeping markets accessible and affordable – Sponsorship helps us keep stall costs low, ensuring that independent traders, micro-businesses, and start-ups can trade without financial barriers.
Funding mentorship and training – We provide essential guidance and support to help new traders develop their skills, build confidence, and grow their businesses sustainably.
Supporting individuals facing financial hardship – Through our Make It to Market Programme, we offer discounted trading opportunities to young entrepreneurs and those experiencing hardship, giving them a low-risk way to test products and develop their businesses.
Strengthening local economies – By supporting small start-ups and creative entrepreneurs, we help foster self-employment, job creation, and economic resilience in the community.
Bringing people into towns and boosting footfall – Markets attract visitors and locals alike, increasing footfall and benefiting nearby businesses such as cafes, shops, and services.
Building stronger, more connected communities – Our markets create welcoming spaces where people can gather, interact, and rediscover their town, fostering a sense of community pride and belonging.
Creating a pathway to financial independence – Many of our traders start with little or no business experience. With support from our programmes, they gain the skills, knowledge, and confidence needed to establish sustainable businesses.
Sponsoring our markets is more than just brand visibility—it’s an investment in people, businesses, and communities, helping to create lasting positive change.
