1. Support the grand re-opening of Maldon's independent lingerie shop

Maldon's thriving independent lingerie shop is expanding this weekend, and is welcoming all residents to come along, have a glass of prosecco and enjoy the special offers available.

The Bra Consultancy came to Maldon at the beginning of 2020, and is moving two doors down - to 16 Edward's Walk - this Friday (19 November) after achieving success in the town.

Councillor David Ogg, the town mayor, will be officially opening the new shop at 11am on Friday, and the celebrations will continue on Saturday (20 November) to give more residents the chance to attend and get exclusive access to the shop's new ranges.

There are a limited number of fitting appointments available on the day, which you can book here.
