Bracknell Town Centre takes the strain out of Christmas Shopping
You’re laden with shopping bags, feet beginning to feel the pinch but you’ve seen the perfect party dress at one end of the shopping centre and now want to pop back to the first shop to see if the shoes and handbag will match! Sound familiar? Recognising that many shoppers clock up many miles on foot during their Christmas shopping, the Bracknell Regeneration Partnership (BRP) is providing fast track solutions to help make Christmas shopping easier and fun. All aboard . . . let the train take the strain! Over the weekends in December between 11am-5pm as well as late night Thursdays (open until 8pm) a free passenger land train will be running between Charles Square and Broadway. So now you can sit back, enjoy the ride and come and go as you please, whiles giving children a fun ride to keep them happy as you shop. Rollerblader Helpers BRP is also offering shoppers their own BRP service . . . that’s “Blade Runner Please”! Specially commissioned rollerblader helpers will be on hand to help you carry your shopping and provide you with lots of Christmas gift inspiration and stocking filler ideas available in Bracknell’s stores. The service is free and available between 11-5pm on Sunday 10th and 17th December and 4pm-8pm on 7th and 14th December to help you finish off that present buying with ease. Get Christmas All Wrapped Up You can have all your Christmas gifts beautifully wrapped free of charge by Thames Hospice Care. A team of expert wrappers will be in Princess Square everyday between 1st-24th December armed with ribbon, bows and tags (donated by BRP) ready to wrap and decorate even the most difficult shaped and sized presents. The service is free, with all donations going straight to Thames Hospice Care, which provides a care service for local people suffering from a terminal or life-limiting illness, and for their families and carers. With over 190 favourite retailers, cafes, bars and restaurants, open seven days a week, free parking on all late night shopping nights (every Thursday from & including 23rd November – 21 December 2006 and every night from Monday 18th December – Friday 22nd December) and all Sundays, there’s much more to discover in Bracknell.
