'Lockdown Love' care packages at BVIC

MEDIA RELEASE 30 August 2021

Bathurst Visitor Information Centre has launched new ‘Lockdown Love’ care packages on their online store.

Products in the selection include jams and relishes from Illa Langa Farm, honey from the Beekeepers Inn, and lavender parcels from Littleton Lavender, as well as Bathurst branded items including magnets, mugs and more.

Purchasers can choose one item, or several to curate a personal care package, complete with a message to the recipient that can be entered in the cart before checkout and payment.   

Bathurst Mayor Ian North said the care packages are a great way to send family members and friends in lockdown some love from afar, while supporting local businesses. 

“For many of us, it has been quite some time since we have been able to get together with friends and family members who live in different areas around NSW and interstate, he said”.

“Posting a small token from our region is a great way to show those you care about that you miss them and help brighten up their day. Purchasing local and regional products also supports local producers and small businesses.” 

Purchases can be collected free from Bathurst Visitor Information Centre or mailed to loved ones for a standard rate of $15 including packaging and postage to anywhere in Australia.  

Lockdown Love boxes are available to purchase now from   www.bathurstregion.com.au/shop/lockdown-love
