Â鶹¸ßÇå and Bute’s council is asking for communities and businesses to give their ideas on the best way to promote a shop local messages in seven towns and Islay across the area.
Â鶹¸ßÇå Links, which is working with the council to create new, bespoke and locally relevant poster campaigns, has set up a series of on-line meetings so that people can contribute their ideas to encourage people to shop local.
Based on the views and ideas gathered, Â鶹¸ßÇå Links will produce a brief for a designer, who will then produce a draft poster for each town, which reflects local messaging, and an overarching banner for Â鶹¸ßÇå and Bute that any business can utilise.
