End of the road for Ben Rhydding Community Fete

Organisers of the Ben Rhydding Community Fete have said that due to a lack of support, the fete which had run for 13 years, won't be returning.

A spokesperson for the fete announce on its social media;

"Following our recent appeals for new fete committee members and helpers, which did not result in sufficient offers of support, the remaining members of the committee have agreed that it is the end of the road for the Ben Rhydding Community Fete.

"This decision was not taken lightly and after 13 successful events, we are sad that the fete in 2018 turned out to be the last one. We would like to thank everyone involved over the years - it’s been a lot of fun and we hope the annual summer fete provided many enjoyable occasions for visitors and participants alike."
