After one year, Broadwindsor can reveal the following fun facts & statistics all of which are correct at the time of publishing:

  • The website, Broadwindsor.org now has 6,500 visitors each month.
  • On Twitter, Broadwindsor.org currently has 730 followers.
  • The Shrewsbury Morris Dancers whose mantra is “Dance, Have Fun, Laugh, Repeatare Broadwindsor.org’s biggest follower on Twitter this month with 1.3K followers.

How do you access the website?

  • Desktop 21%
  • Tablet 16%
  • Mobile 63%

After this last 12 months when everybody has suffered and struggled, Broadwindsor.org will now evolve into a new and  independent, not-for-profit local community organisation – purely to generate enough revenue to cover the essential operational overheads in order to keep it going.  The Editor’s labour continues to be voluntary.

Consequently, from April 6th 2021, all the commercial advertisers who are listed and have been promoted and supported on the website throughout this past year will be asked to pay £15 a year for their inclusion on the website’s local business listing page and with features throughout the year 2021 – 2022 Businesses will be emailed directly in due course.

  • £15/year works out as £0.04 per day.
  • Where else will you get such personalised advertising reaching all corners of the globe?
  • Broadwindsor.org needs you to keep it going!

Wobbly Cottage Say Thank You

The Wobbly Cottage artisan bakery at Redlands Yard celebrated 3 years of business there today and owners Rich & Dani had this to say:

Bit of a #throwback to our opening day 3 years ago. 3 years of a bricks and mortar bakery and shop, how did that happen?! A huge thank you to everyone that has supported us in every which way, customers old and new and to all of you that continue to support us even in these very odd times we find ourselves in. We are so lucky to have such loyal and supportive people around us. Thank You!

Congratulations to you both!
