Anyone looking to showing their appreciation for father, or father figure, can choose to use some of the huge range of West Lothian businesses on offer.

If you are looking for gifts, meals or activities to mark the occasion, West Lothian's traditional town centres and villages have an impressive variety of shops, restaurants and attractions to help you find the perfect way to show your love and appreciation.

Whatever you choose to spend your money on this Father's Day, keeping it local helps support West Lothian jobs, supporting families and the community. 

Small and independent businesses are the backbone to our communities - every purchase helps contribute to a thriving economy. If you can't make it to the local shop in person, then why not consider shopping online at a small business via their website, for home delivery or later collection when you can.   

A West Lothian Council spokesperson said: "We are encouraging everyone in West Lothian to consider keeping it local if they are buying gifts this Father's Day. 

"West Lothian has a huge selection of excellent retailers, quality restaurants and interesting activities for anyone looking for that special gift or present. 

"Be creative and make this Father's Day unforgettable, whilst supporting our local businesses and our own communities.

"Father's Day gifts don't have to break the bank, and small personal token of your thanks or some quality time together can often mean more than any expensive presents."
