We had such a good time 👏🏻

Bravo to all the team, volunteers, organisations and partners - creativity and collaboration is shining in Lancashire!🌹

[Festival of Making @festofmaking]

Last weekend, record-breaking crowds gathered in Blackburn for a celebration of making! The town centre transformed into a vibrant playground of creativity and experimentation, offering something for the whole family to enjoy. Mark your calendars - we can't wait for next year!

@icgagency Love this! Congratulations @irunlancaster 🎉🎉

@AArmstrong_says Did someone from the Co-Op have a break to spend time with children going through exams? Admittedly not resigning though.

@soult Oh, nice shot 📸

[Amy Young @AmyLYoung_]

@soult Enjoy! There is a Lounges location too which I know you’ll love 😉

Love Rossendale too, used to work in Rawtensall - good to see their town centre masterplan in the news recently

@AlexReilley1 Great to see, Alex 👏🏻

[Amy Young @AmyLYoung_]

Looking good at our client’s scheme @RDriverside in Rochdale!

Can’t wait to visit next time I’m on site 🤩

[Alex Reilley @AlexReilley1]

It’s another landmark day for @theLOUNGERS
Today we’ve opened our 250th site (& 211th Lounge) 🎉 🥳🍾
Pionero Lounge has opened in Rochdale at the heart of the Riverside Scheme.
We’ve come a long, long way since our 1st 10-table Lounge opened in 2002.

@soult I feel the same way about Blackburn’s M&S moving out of town in the next couple of years.

It’s so well loved in the town, I can’t see some of those loyal shoppers heading out of town 🤷🏻‍♀️

Finally got the chance to visit Battersea Power Station today.

It was a fairly quiet Monday afternoon inside, I suspect the area comes alive on weekends and on less chilly days 🥶

That being said it was still magnificent, helpful staff on hand a big plus too ✔️

🛒💳 Supermarket loyalty cards. A thread.
In recent months supermarkets have been pushing us to sign up to these things. At Tesco 80% of all purchases are made using a Clubcard.
Why are supermarkets so keen? Data. Of course. But something new is happening 1/🧵

Pls share. Many are worried after reports that Etsy, eBay, Vinted etc will start automatically passing sales info to HM Revenue. To set your mind at rest, best to read our full guide at https://t.co/vEFPi00ZDP, but in brief

1. There is no new tax
2. Unless you're 'trading' selling your old stuff isn't taxed
3. Only sales over c£1,700 or more than 30 items a year are reported

[Amy Young @AmyLYoung_]

This would be amazing if the bid is successful.

Corporation Park is a gem, would love to see the conservatory brought back to life.

I last had a peek inside in 2015 at a Heritage Open Day.

[BBC Lancashire @BBCLancashire]

A disused Victorian conservatory at Corporation Park in #Blackburn could be refurbished and brought back into use with a bid for lottery cash.

@LanaC Hi Lana, I know Selfridges is doing roaming Santa appearances in their stores (free) and this shopping centre in Doncaster (a client) has free Grotto: https://t.co/sJEXGfU4s0 🎅🏼✨

[Amy Young @AmyLYoung_]

@AArmstrong_says Yes, overheard this. People buying gifts on behalf of grandparents, others etc 🛍️

[Amy Young @AmyLYoung_]

Lots of shoppers looking for deals in Manchester today, with queues to get into some stores including END and Søstrene Grene.

I love shopping (in physical shops) but crowds of people make it quite the task to even get across Market Street today!

[Ashley Armstrong @AArmstrong_says]

Despite my best efforts I’ve ended up writing about Black Friday again. 🛍️There was no shop scrambles for TVs this year - because it’s largely shifted online. And while spending figures might be up - that’s largely because inflation has made goods more expensive, even on discount

[Amy Young @AmyLYoung_]

@laurencbradbury @iamrofe is this still your area of expertise?!🎄

[Amy Young @AmyLYoung_]

@BrockbankJames Wow, I used to use these in a previous role!

[Amy Young @AmyLYoung_]

This is amazing ❤️

Here are some of the random acts of kindness my colleagues have done this week…🙏🙏🙏
