Will there be parking?

There will be limited parking at the Recreation Ground. If possible, we would recommend arriving on foot (plus it’s greener!)


Will there be First Aid?

First Aid support will be provided by Immediate Care Medical.


What about the weather?

As we are expecting very warm and sunny conditions, visitors are strongly advised to bring sun protection and to stay hydrated.

If it rains, there will be a marquee with limited seating for anyone who wants to take shelter or needs to take a quick breather.


Is there a Meeting Point?

The Parish Council will have a dedicated stall on the day. This can be used as a Meeting Point.
