Horsham Unlimited’s annual Christmas campaign - Dressed for Success - continues this year too with town centre businesses encouraged to get festive and contribute to Horsham’s holiday appeal.
The window competition returns with the West Sussex County Times making an award to the business deemed to have Dressed for Success in the most beneficial way for itself, the public and the town. Judging will be made by a special panel but influenced by your suggestions.
Who do you think deserves recognition for the festive spirit they inject into the town at Christmas?
