I think we achieved an excellent start for the first ever Community Festival with a good number of participants having successful events.
So for next year we would like to invite more participants to join the program – all local organisations and businesses are welcome – how about it schools, pubs, clubs, businesses? I know that a number of potentially significant events missed out this year as they could not get organised in time so good luck with your planning for 2019 and if we can help at all please let me know.
Coverage in 2018 included:
- Shefford Newsline
- Hitchin Comet
- Three Counties Radio
- Social media
- Posters around town
- Program hosting on Shefford and Local Villages
- Banner in high street
- Garage Sale Trail signage
For 2019 we are now building our own website at www.sheffordcommunityfestival.co.uk and will add material as it comes available.
Publicity deadlines
Once again we have support from the Council and Shefford Newsline which means we are working toward their copy deadline at the beginning of July to have our program in the August issue. So please start thinking and planning for next year and let me know about your event as soon as possible.
Best regards
Ian Deavin
