And the festive fun does not stop there….We are also hosting an exclusive series of shopping evenings every Thursday from 12 November to 3 December from 5pm. We will be welcoming guests to enjoy a festive drink and mince pie followed by an evening of socially distanced shopping, including special guests talks, and demos.
