Events

Can you help the 3VV stall at the Lamplighter Festival on Saturday? #Todmorden

Lamplighter Festival, Todmorden, Saturday, 19th November – have you got an hour to help?

Once again, we will take a market stall, sell hot vegan street food and provide information during the afternoon of the Lamplighter Festival.  The stall will be set up from 3pm, opening about 3.30pm, and continue during the Illuminated Street Festival. We will pack up when the parade starts at 7pm.

Would you like to make something for us to sell? We will reimburse ingredients costs (receipts please). Food that can be wrapped and easily hand-held. We will probably have hot dogs, sausage rolls and daal/chilli already.

It is usually a busy and fun day and we will need lots of help.  If you are willing and able to contribute some of your time in setting up, packing up, running the stall or providing tasters, even for an hour, please email Hilary at hils46@yahoo.co.uk.
