The Rock Shopping Centre is thrilled to announce the winner of our £1500 Birthday Spending Spree prize — congratulations to Samira Safapour from Bury.
The Birthday Spending Spree giveaway was launched to celebrate The Rock’s 15th anniversary and show appreciation to our fantastic community of shoppers.
From all of us at The Rock: thank you to everyone who entered, and stay tuned for more exciting events and prizes coming your way!
FIFTEEN local creatives were at the centre of The Rock’s 15th birthday celebrations.
To mark the shopping and leisure destination’s birthday, The Rock held a competition earlier in the year where local people were invited to enter their ‘Design a Birthday Card’ competition.
More than 300 entries were received, and 15 winners were selected. Their designs are now on display at The Rock as part of the birthday celebrations.
The winners were invited to a celebration event on Saturday 12th July, where the cards were unveiled and they were each presented with a £30 gift card for a store of their choice at The Rock.
The celebrations were hosted by Roch Valley Radio and included performances from Forza Dance Studio and North West Musical Theatre Choirs.
The Rock’s new partner charity, Bleakholt Animal Sanctuary, attended for their first fundraising event as part of their year as ‘charity of choice’. They ran a tombola which raised £452.
To add to the fun, three costume characters dressed as cupcakes, roamed the centre handing out cupcakes to visitors and The Rock’s mascot Rocky joined the crowds for photos.
Arnold Wilcox- Wood, Centre Director of The Rock, said: “We’ve had a wonderful weekend celebrating our 15th birthday – which officially falls on Wednesday (16th July). The competition entries were fantastic, and we’re so pleased to be able to celebrate so much local talent. The cards will be on display for the next few weeks, please do come to have a look at them.
“On another note, we’d like to thank all our customers, retailers, team members and residents for a wonderful 15 years of The Rock. We’re so proud of the part we’ve played in Bury’s story and we’re equally proud of the part everyone has played in ours.”
