KIDDERMINSTER’S market is offering five stalls free of charge as part of the national Love Your Local Market campaign.

LSD Promotions Ltd will be giving five Kidderminster businesses the chance to run a market stall for free on Thursday, May 23 or Thursday, May 30.

The free package includes insurance, a stall and a counter.

Kidderminster street market is one of 667 UK markets participating in the national campaign led by the National Association of British Market Authorities (NABMA) and backed by central Government.

Love Your Local Market fortnight is running until Wednesday, May 29.

Wyre Forest District Council leader John Campion said: “This is a great idea to give aspiring market traders the opportunity to experience market life. Markets are a valued part of the community and economy.

“This campaign shows that markets are thriving across the country and we wish the stall holders in Kidderminster every success in this Love Your Market fortnight.”

Geraldine Carter, president of NABMA, said: “The build up to Love Your Local Market has been fantastic and the number of markets taking part is far beyond our original expectations."
