Signs that Spring is here

Signs that Spring is here

There are lots of indicators that Spring is once again upon us - daffodils, lambs leaping about the fields full of life, birds nest building but one sure fire way we can tell it’s Spring here at Brocklehursts is the arrival of the Show Unit lorries and all their paraphernalia. The pace in the warehouse picks up a gear with the arrival of new stock, cabinets and signage for use on the stand.

We’ve been attending shows around the country since my father started the business back in the early 1960’s. It’s something we really look forward to and this year we’re really excited as some shows are returning after an absence of two years due to the pandemic. We can’t wait to catch up with old friends and make new ones this season.

We thought we’d start off with a few dates for your diary, events where you can catch the Brocklehursts Show Unit this season. We’ll be updating this page as we get closer to each event with Stand Numbers, etc.
