After a very successful first year, Know Your Town is back by popular demand providing local organisations, businesses and voluntary groups with the invaluable opportunity to promote themselves to their local community.
Last year, over 70 businesses and groups took part with 1000s of local people attending and finding out more about the shops, services and facilities available to them. In a survey of 415 visitors to the 2011 events, 88% of respondents rated the event as very good or good and 97% said that they would like to see more events of this nature in the future.
