Bill Olner, MP for Nuneaton supporting Markets Week. This picture was taken during his regular visit to the market on Saturday 22nd June 2007 and he is seen visiting one of the traders, Jan Gadesby, on her olive and cheese stall. Also in the picture is Alan Ottey, Town Centres Manager who has responsibility for the market.

Bill is a regular visitor to the town on a Saturday with his wife and many of the traders know him. He has also supported markets and the work of NABMA.

NABMA Chief Executive Graham Wilson acknowledged “this is yet another powerful endorsement of the support from Members of Parliament for their local market. All over the country it is happening but thanks to the All Party Markets Parliamentary Group the profile is being raised and markets are being put onto new agendas.”
