ORGANISERS are looking for bands and activities for the 2014 Little Big Festival, which runs in the Town Gardens from the beginning of April to the end of September.

The event launches on April 27 and artists are welcome to go along and exhibit and sell their work.

Artists will need to bring their own tables and stands and be ready to set up from 2pm in preparation for the public’s arrival at 2.30pm.

If you’d like to take part in the launch event, email carolinerday@yahoo.co.uk Organiser Josie Williams said: “We are especially looking for activities for young children – dance workshops, art and crafts and storytelling. Also martial arts, yoga, running, dance, gardening tips, flower arranging, chess and in fact anything considered that you feel can be enjoyed by all, from small children through to the elderly.

“Organise your event, charge a nominal fee if appropriate, target your audience and we will put your listing on the Little Big Festival Facebook page and make you an administrator so you can let people know if the event has to be cancelled due to bad weather.”

To take part, email josie@commonweal.co.uk or call 01793 427860.
