Friends of Blythe Hill Fields Social
We know so many people absolutely loved the successful 2021 festival, it was extremely popular and so much fun! Perhaps you browsed the stalls, kept the kids busy with the funfair and woodland stage or just soaked up the atmosphere listening to the live music on the main stage? It was an amazing event and we'd like it to happen again! However, our wonderful annual festival is in danger of not running this year as we're very low on volunteers. We also need a passionate secretary to help with the general admin throughout the year.
Happy Christmas from Nature’s Gym
Thank you for all of your help during 2021. It was lovely to have a relatively normal year after the cancellations of 2020.
