Warrington Borough Council has the following markets: Warrington Indoor Market, Lymm Open Market, Warrington Comicon, Warrington Medieval Market and a monthly evening food market called Foody Thirstday.
Here is the Council’s response to our Freedom of Information request:
Q: Do you allow stall holders at your markets to sell real fur? (including small items such as knitted hats with fur bobbles, or key rings with fur trims etc.
A: No, however in future we may be looking to run a vintage 1940’s themed weekend which may include traders who sell genuine vintage clothing with real fur trim.
The Council allows the sale of fur. They have asked to see our Fur Free Markets policy to consider.
Real fur is cruel and unnecessary. Please urge the Council to ban the sale of real fur on their markets and adopt the official Fur Free Markets policy by contacting Andy Ward, Market Project Manager , email: andy.ward@warrington.gov.uk
