Richmond’s award winning visitor attractions are throwing open their doors for FREE to Richmondshire residents on Saturday 26 March from 10am to 4pm.
As well as free entry here at the museum, Richmond Castle, The Georgian Theatre Experience, and Richmondshire Museum, local businesses are also joining in on the day offering a range of discounts.
“Love Being Local is a great opportunity for residents to be a ‘doorstep tourist’ for the day; reminding themselves of the brilliant things there are to see and do here in Richmond,” says Lynda Powell, Director of The Green Howards Museum, and Chair of Welcome to Richmond who organise the event.
“We’re all often guilty of overlooking and undervaluing what’s right under our noses, so we hope that a trip to the town’s attractions will give people a boost, and that they will then encourage family, friends and visitors to come and see us during the season ahead.
With the trend for staycationing looking set to continue, having local people as ambassadors for the town and all it has to offer is really valuable to us all.”
