WE NEED YOUR HELP PLEASE!!
We need to find a new home for our storage container. It's needs to be moved by 6th March. Does anyone have space to house it or know of any other storage options? We are a group of volunteers who fundraise to put the annual event on therefore cant afford commercial storage options. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you. The Dickens committee x
