Get set for the 42nd Westbury Village Show!

PREPARATIONS for the 42nd Westbury on Trym Village Show are gearing up. It will once again be showcasing the interests and talents of local people at the Village Hall on Saturday September 2. Doors will be open to the public at 11am and we are pleased to announce that the show will be opened at 11.15am by Darren Jones MP. The presentation of trophies will be at 4.30pm.

The theme of this year’s show will be Harvest Time.

The Hall will be full of impressive displays of fruit, vegetables, flowers, cookery, art, crafts and photography. Once again, SusWoT (Sustainable Westbury on Trym) are sponsoring a video class. People are invited to submit a clip lasting up to ninety seconds, on the theme of ‘Harvest’.

The schedules contain further details of all the classes plus lots of ideas for creative minds and keeping children entertained during the summer holidays.
