Local News
There are plans to have an ATM installed at the town's reliable Post Office. After the closure of Lloyds Bank, there remain only two cash points in the town. There will be an update in February on the matter.
UPDATE: It is unlikely in the near future that a ATM will be installed at the Post Office due to other Post Office branches' ATMs having a tendency to eat the cards!
​
There are currently three vacant premises on Broad Street with retail opportunity.
​
There are plans to close the bus stop on Pump Street and move the existing bus shelter from its current location to a reprofiled Tower Hill bus stop on the A44/Bypass. This will relieve congestion going through and reduce safety hazards in the town centre.

On Friday 3rd March, for International Breast Cancer Awareness Day, businesses decorated their front windows in a pink colour scheme and a bra chain was organised in the town. It stretched from the furthest end of Market Square all the way to the top of High Street! The bras were then washed and used to decorate trees in Market Square. The Chair of Bromyard Chamber of Commerce spoke in an interview with Toni McDonald of BBC Radio Hereford & Worcester a few weeks prior and an interview with the former vicar at St Peter's Church, Rev. Graham Sykes, about his diagnosis of breast cancer, was broadcast three times on the day.
