Otley, we're packed away and safe, and you’ve been brilliant!

A huge thank you to everyone who came down to support our traders at Otley Market today!

We might have looked a little different this morning, with our traders trading from their vehicles, but that didn’t stop us bringing you your monthly market favourites!

A massive shout-out to our adaptable traders for making it happen, and to every single one of you who came along, had a browse, made a purchase and showed your support. It really does mean the world to our small independent businesses.

This is what community is all about. Showing up for one another, supporting local and keeping our wonderful high streets and markets thriving.

Thank you for being part of it, Otley. We’ll see you next month on November 29!

Good Morning 💨💨💨

Unfortunately we will not be open today to coincide with the farmers market.

The market is still on for today though as the tough hardy traders are selling from their vehicles 💪🤗 Pop by if you are passing. Real Markets traders are 🏋️‍♂️
