We are pleased to announce that we will once again be running a Shop Hartlepool Christmas Campaign. If you followed us last year, you’ll likely have seen our Window Display Competition. Lots of Shop Hartlepool businesses got involved, spreading Christmas cheer with wonderfully decorated windows. This year we wanted to do something different which is where the idea of 24 Days of Christmas Giveaways came from.
Starting on December 1st until December 22nd, we’ll be hosting at least one giveaway a day where the public can be in with a chance of winning a fantastic prize from a Shop Hartlepool business. We will be alternating hosting the giveaway between our Facebook and Instagram page. We’ll be making it simple to enter, a random winner will be selected and it will be completely free. Full terms & conditions will be announced on Wednesday 30th November 2022.
