25 & 26 October 2025 -Cumbria Life Home & Gift Fair

I am delighted to announce I will have a stand at the amazing Cumbria Life Home and Gift Fair in Keswick.

"We’re excited to invite you to exhibit at the Cumbria Life Home & Gift Fair, an exceptional event brought to you by the publishers of Cumbria Life, Cheshire Life, Lancashire Life, Yorkshire Life, and Derbyshire Life. Taking place in Keswick—a vibrant market town in the heart of the Lake District National Park—the fair is held in one of the area’s most iconic landmarks: the historic Pencil Factory & Packing Halls. Built in 1916, this beautifully restored industrial building combines original character with modern, spacious interiors and stunning views of the surrounding fells, creating the perfect setting for this unique lifestyle event. This year, we’re thrilled to be expanding the fair with a brand new Food & Drink Hall – The Mixing Shed. This vibrant third hall will shine a spotlight on some of the region’s finest food and drink producers. From artisan cheeses and hand-bottled spirits to small-batch jams, bakes and gourmet treats, The Mixing Shed offers visitors a chance to meet the makers, explore new flavours and discover the stories behind some of Cumbria’s most exciting culinary talent. We continue to build on the success of our established Gift & Lifestyle section and are delighted to once again collaborate with Maureen Whitemore of Whitemore & Thwaytes Interiors, who will curate the Homes & Interiors section. With her expert eye, this space promises a stylish and inspiring blend of homewares, furnishings, and interior craftsmanship. With over 120 traders already registered and a wide-reaching marketing campaign led by Cumbria Life and 22 additional print and digital titles reaching a combined 17 million consumers, the Cumbria Life Home & Gift Fair is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated events in the North’s calendar."
