"It's a great concept and one that will be really useful to all of us who live in, or visit, North West Norfolk,” said Alec Lochore of the new website Bacon.co.uk
One of the best ways to spend Easter is at the Burnham Market International Horse Trials and this year our video crew will be enjoying not only their Easter eggs but also a bit of Bacon at the Norfolk event.
Alec Lochore of Musketeer Event Management has announced that Bacon.co.uk is to be the new title sponsor of the Burnham Market International. The name doesn’t have anything to do with sizzling rashers but is the title of an innovative website to be launched in late February - the brainchild of Norfolk businessman Stephen Bacon and his wife Rebecca.
“Bacon.co.uk will promote the best of what is good in North West Norfolk; that might be fabulous places to eat, reliable builders, the most stunning beaches – anything and everything, so long as it comes highly recommended,” explained Stephen. “I hope that it will become the place where both locals and holiday makers turn when looking for reputable local businesses or worthy visitor attractions. We will be inviting new recommendations which, if supported, will be added to enable the website to grow organically and evolve over time.
“As a popular visitor attraction itself which my family has attended many times, Burnham Market International provides an obvious launch base for us to promote the new website.”
The Bacon.co.uk Burnham Market International takes place on Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and Easter Saturday, 2nd - 4th April, offering a fantastic day out for all the family, with trade stands and children's entertainment running alongside the world class equestrian competition. As usual, event horse owners will be invited for refreshments in the Event Horse Owners Marquee
An Eventful Life will be there bringing you coverage of the event and videoing every rider on the cross country course
