Shaftesbury Snowdrops New Site Found by BBC Countryfile

BBC1’s Countryfile is coming to Shaftesbury next month to feature our town’s snowdrop celebrations. Business and community leaders say that promotion on a programme watched by 4 million viewers could provide a welcome boost to our visitor economy. The new snowdrops website was launched three weeks ago and that piqued the programme-makers’ interest. The BBC picked up on that and decided that they wanted to come to the town.
