An opportunity is available to provide a borough council’s shop local campaign.

Allerdale Borough Council is seeking quotations for the provision of a shop local campaign which would encourage residents to support their high street.

The council looks to support the area’s high streets and independent retailers in the recovery from Covid-19.

Campaign costs will be funded by the Government’s Welcome Back Fund. In their invitation for quotations, Allerdale Council said: “The budget is £7,500 plus VAT where applicable to cover all elements of the campaign including your fees to develop and implement the campaign.”

Allerdale Council asked that a previously commissioned Shop Local video is used in online promotional material.

The campaign would start in November/December, applicant are asked to propose a length for the Shop Local Campaign but it must end by March 31.

They said: “Please submit your proposal by 12 noon, Friday, 5 November 2021 to Graham Kennedy, Senior Manager - Destinations, Allerdale Borough Council, graham.kennedy@allerdale.gov.uk telephone: 01900 516761”
