OSWESTRY has been a given small bright makeover courtesy of the town's Business Improvement District (BID).

The town centre is now full of bright and beautiful bunting across the Cross and Bailey Street as the weather improves.

Adele Nightingale, BID manager, says the bunting is aimed at boosting the town's appearance as it begins to reopen after the third Covid-19 lockdown.

She said: "Things are looking up in Oswestry town centre.

"As the weather brightens and footfall improves, the strewn bunting, colourful and fluttering in the breeze, is now in place.

"The initiative by BID has been timed to support the reopening of shops, hospitality, and businesses, and boost the Oswestry visitor economy which is so important to many local businesses.

"The bunting is one way to celebrate our businesses being able to open, and meeting their customers and clients again while at the same time, brightening up our wonderful town for residents and visitors."
