August: Hyde Park Unity Day, Woodhouse Moor, Saturday 1 August 2009

This year’s community event, organised and run by local volunteers is coming up soon. The community and local information stalls have always been a key part of our celebration of the local area. It’s a great way to advertise your community group, working in or around Hyde Park, and you can reach thousands of people in one day. There is also space for commercial stalls at a reasonable cost. For more info contact Emma at emma.bosworth@yahoo.com. The site this year will be smaller and more compact. There will be the usual eclectic mix of music styles and activities for everyone of all age groups. The children’s area, theatre tent, Proper Dodgy/ Asian tent and permaculture area will be alcohol free zones.

As always, the final programme depends on the number of local people willing to get involved. Please come along to a team meeting, held every Wednesday at 7.30pm in Wrangthorn Church Hall, Hyde Park Terrace. There are many ways to contribute, including helping with fundraising, being a steward on the day (we need 50) and setting up the site (guaranteed to improve your fitness).
