For the 2nd year running the BMSS team attempted to bring our communities both side of the “Million Brick peace wall”together as one to spread some festive cheer and increase neighbourly interaction and good relations even more so in this cost of living crisis.
Following on with the success of our 1st ever market last year we felt that we could build on it and return this year bigger and better, whilst increasing participation and interaction. WOW what an impact we had again this year, with upwards of 1200 to 1500 in attendance, a a larger covered marquee space, more community groups from both sides with stalls including our own critical engagment groups selling their wares. The highlight of the day being the school choir from John Paul II primary school beautiful festive singing ( or was it Santa on the bucking bronko Rudolph?) alongside the flythrough videos of our new shared space building.
