BedfordBID supports small businesses in the town centre 365 days of the year.
With the backing of national chains and big brands, the Business Improvement District encourages people to 'Love Bedford' for the benefit of the largest and smallest businesses.
But December 6th is a nationwide rally for consumers to back smaller businesses, which make up the vast majority of UK companies.
So please visit town centre businesses in December - retail, restaurants or services to help keep Bedford buzzing.
Order your new TV or oven from our town centre suppliers, book your family or office party in Bedford and please remember to do at least some of your Christmas shopping with us.
One way you can be sure to support small businesses is by buying Love Bedford gift vouchers this Christmas. Unlike like national vouchers, these can be used in small businesses as well in Bedford. In fact around 275 businesses are signed up to accept them from restaurants to bars, shops to services and more.
