The aims of the Festival Society are:
- To encourage a village community spirit;
- To celebrate the village’s cultural achievements and interests, e.g. music, art, culinary, horticulture, and other arts and crafts;
- To provide enjoyable events for all;
- To support village groups and projects.
The WVFS has organised major village festivals over the years and the next one will be a weekend celebration for the Queen’s platinum jubilee in June 2022, jointly with the Residents’ Society. This is likely to involve all the village organisations and businesses, including those based at home.
Membership of the WVFS is open to everyone over the age of 18 who is willing to help the society achieve its aims and is run by a management committee elected at the society’s AGM.
If you are interested in getting involved or just putting your name down to help out at an event, please email us at willastonfestivalsociety@gmail.com and we’ll get back to you.
