Saturday was the Bo'ness Halloween Family Fun Day and it was a great success. Well done to all the local businesses who organised this event, to increase the footfall in the town centre. The event was completely free of charge and there was lots of activities including a Treasure hunt, Trick or treating, Halloween games, Prizes for best dressed, Spooktacular fun from children's theatre, Bo'ness and an amazing Performance by Street Bratz.

It was lovely to feel a great atmosphere within the town centre and seeing all the effort people made to dress up and also take part in all the activities. Loads of people participated in the treasure hunt, which resulted in groups of people walking in and around the local shops. 

Shopping local is really important in order to support local small businesses, To highlight the importance of this local shops boarded up the front of their shops to show how the high street would be effected if these businesses werent there. There are lots of fantastic shops offering lots of different services in Bo'ness. There is over 50 shops in the town centre and the treasure hunt helped highlight all these fantastic little shops on people doorsteps.. Unfortunately, if these shops aren't used, then you will lose them. Please help support small businesses by shopping local.

I had a great time at this event, capturing lots of photographs of the day to share with you all.

Thanks for inviting me
