Warwickshire County Council is running a social media campaign to encourage residents to shop local this Christmas.

A timely reminder of the year-round message to ‘keep it local’ comes in the form of an A to Z of independent businesses across the county, with daily posts on the council’s Warwickshire Towns Network’s Facebook and Twitter channels highlighting festive gift ideas and where to buy them.

Advent is producing and delivering the content, and the first week’s posts reached over 30,000 people with 1,000 engagements across both social media channels.
