RED WEATHER ALERT - WEDNESday 24 JUNE
NO MARKET on due to weather
Due to the current Red Weather Warning for extreme heat and humidity, we have made the difficult decision to cancel this week's Wednesday Market in the interests of public safety. Latest advice and information regarding the heat-health alert can be found here: https://www.somerset.gov.uk/heat-health-alert-advice-and.../
The forecast conditions present significant health and safety risks to traders, staff and visitors, and we believe that cancelling the event is the most responsible course of action. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and greatly appreciate your understanding and continued support. We look forward to welcoming you back to the market under safer conditions next week. In the meantime, please stay safe, keep hydrated and take care.
Thank you for your understanding.
Please note that we are an outdoor market subject to the weather.
