Jubilee Window Displays – Part 1

Shop Window Displays
Many thanks to Cllr Jason Fiddaman for the picture of Helen & Douglas House with one of the best Jubilee window displays. I’m not sure if there will be a prize but Helen & Douglas House would be in there with a good chance.

Shop Window Displays
In the Abbey Shopping Centre, conditions are not that favorable for shop window displays during the redevelopment, but Cancer Research UK has a good display as the canopy above is being dismantled
Shop Window Displays
The Book Store have a good Jubilee display, with books like: Queen Elizabeth II – A Diamond Jubilee Album. The Book Store seems a little caged in so I hope they are still getting lots of visitors.
