Be inclusive – Shefford has expanded significantly in recent years and continues to grow rapidly – this presents us all with a wealth of opportunity. Whatever your interest there are probably others in Shefford who would like to explore it, so over the period of the festival this is a great opportunity to reach out and build our community spirit, subject to Covid regulations.
