It was all change at the weekend, when our stalwart volunteers took down the hanging baskets and returned them to the garden centre where they will be planted up for next year. Working with Stony in Bloom, who were changing their planting schemes for the winter season, the two teams have ensured that Stony will be looking beautiful all year round.

The bunting's down and we're looking forward to Switch-On Day which this year will be on 21st November. It's a little earlier than usual to give everyone more chance to see the amazing Stony Stratford Christmas Lights. Businesses are encouraged to make a note in the diary now, ready to take advantage of the increased footfall on the day.

Congratulations all round go to everyone who played a part in this year's Stony in Bloom. As a result the town has been presented with the Britain in Bloom Regional Gold Award and received the Thames and Chilterns Small Town Trophy. We're delighted that our hanging baskets contributed to the success and our thanks go to Stony in Bloom, not only for creating magnificent displays in the town centre, Galley Hill and Fullers Slade, but also for doing the paperwork involved and hosting the judges. Once again, it's well done Stony!

Six organisations held little markets in Stony Stratford yesterday. It seemed as if the town was buzzing. Did it really bring in more visitors or was it an illusion? What are your thoughts?

We try to find tenants for offices above the shops, and businesses to occupy the retail spaces below, because there's a subtle symbiotic effect between the two categories. Those working in offices above tend to spend in the shops below, and if those shops remain open, then everyone wants to come and work here. So if you have commercial space to rent in Stony Stratford do let us know - email [email protected] and we'll publicise it for you FOC both on this page and in the local Facebook group.
