The date has been set for the fourth Scotland Loves Local Week – with people across Scotland being urged to champion choosing local.
The people, businesses and initiatives that make communities thrive will be celebrated from June 13 to 20.
And, as with the activity taking place as the country rallies behind Scotland in the World Cup, this year’s theme is Flying the Flag for Local Businesses.
Scotland Loves Local Week will see social media campaigning, political visits and other events highlight the transformational difference of choosing local – supporting friends, family and neighbours by getting behind the businesses which are the fabric of communities.
Businesses and community groups across the country are being encouraged to take part – as they have done in previous years – celebrating what makes their communities unique.
Scotland Loves Local is the drive for people to build stronger, more sustainable futures for their community by supporting the businesses in their area, potentially injecting millions of pounds into regional economies.
It is organised by Scotland’s Towns Partnership (STP), the organisation which champions the critical part that towns and local neighbourhoods play in creating a stronger, fairer, wealthier Scotland.
