A CALENDAR featuring the best parts of Chipping Sodbury is now on sale in the town.

The 2014 Chipping Sodbury Calendar, produced by Sodbury Chamber of Commerce, is aimed at promoting local independent businesses through the Shop Local, Shop Sodbury campaign.

It features shots of shopkeepers outside their premises including Swagger, Hobbs House, Bistro 58, the Moda Hotel and The Grapes public house. They were all taken by local professional photographer Rich McDonough.

Mark Lloyd, chairman of the chamber of commerce, said: “Calendar supports the Shop Local, Shop Sodbury campaign and includes discount vouchers redeemable at many of the businesses featured, making it a real bargain buy.

“All proceeds from sales are used to promote Chipping Sodbury as a place to visit and this allows the chamber of commerce to organise events such as the food festival and the jazz festival and to support other local events.”

The calendars are on sale now in the Tourist Information Centre for £4.99.
