Come meet us at the Ladywell Christmas Market

The FOBLC invites you to come and visit our stall at the Ladywell Christmas Market. The Ladywell market is taking place on Saturday 15th December from 11am to 5pm and is taking its inspiration from the BBC show 'Strictly Come Dancing'. Click here for more infomation.
