A festive invite for traders

Traders in Lichfield are being invited to take part in a Christmas market in Germany.

Lichfield's twin city Limburg an der Lahn is inviting businesses from Lichfield and Burntwood to show off their goods in its picturesque Old Town.

The dates available are November 27-December 4 or December 5-11.

Organisers of the Limburg Christmas ma-ket are suggesting that potential traders sell items which retail up to 10 euros, which are clearly English and would make Christmas gifts.

Anyone interested can contact Julie Dewhurst, the Lichfield City Council twinning officer, on 01543 309851.
