Firstly, the Committee would like to thank everyone who participated and also supported us in our efforts in putting on Totton and Eling Carnival Day on June 21st 2025. We had positive feedback from the public and it seems they express their desire to see it continue in 2026 and beyond. However, for this to happen we need to have funding and/or sponsorship in place to enable the feasibility to keep it going. Funds are necessary to cover the upfront costs including insurance/medical cover/security/musicians/road closure payments. In addition to these costs, new signage is needed to meet the requirements of the local Council. Therefore, we would be very appreciative of anyone who is in a position to help with funding or sponsorship to contact [email protected] at their earliest possible convenience, as unless we have these issues resolved, we will be unable to carry on which would mean the Totton and Eling Carnival day will cease following in the wake of many other carnivals across the country. The Committee have set up a Just Giving page for anybody who would like to donate which has been posted already . In the meantime we will also be trying to seek extra funding.
