Independent businesses and craft companies are coming together for the Wiltshire Makers Christmas market.

This Saturday (4th November), some of the best independent producers and creators will showcase their wares at an indoor Christmas Market in Wiltshire.

The event has been put together by Wiltshire Makers CIC, a not-for-profit company aiming to highlight those independent businesses to as broad an audience as possible.

Doors open at 10 am with a selection of crafts, gifts, food & drink. There will also be a raffle and a pop-up cafe.

Claire Burden, a director of Wiltshire Makers, told Salisbury Radio, "This is a great opportunity to shop local this Festive season and support the Makers themselves.

"With unique gifts aplenty, there will be something for everyone. Come and taste the best food and drink on offer right here in Wiltshire and rest from the festive shopping in our pop-up cafe with a coffee and homemade mince pie. We look forward to seeing you there."

Below is a list of confirmed stall holders who will be at the market.
