Website and social media for Buxton Wool Gathering

Buxton Wool Gathering is the sister event to Bakewell, launched in 2018. The approach we’ve taken mirrors the original event but with a key colour difference, swapping red for blue. This time the inspiration was pulled from St Ann’s Well, the source of the water which made Buxton famous as a spa town.
