Transition West Bridgford Summer Gathering


On Saturday 6th June over 50 stall holders came to celebrate and spread the message of sustainable living in West Bridgford. Although the weather was not very good (understatement) our spirits were high and the cammaraderie was strong.

I would like to thank all the volunteers who came to help set up and run the events and of course the entertainers (Julie from Fairy Land, May pole dancers, and the drummers) who gave their time for Free! At 10am the Therapeutic Drummers drummed their hearts out and made the gathering come to life. Visitors streamed in, protected by their umbrellas, joining in activities, receiving advise and having some wonderful treatments. A little before 11am the rain held off and the children of the West Bridgford Infant school treated us to a heart warming maypole dance that set the theme for the day. Fun,joy and togetherness!

I also would like to thank MC Parker for the wonderful games he organised at such very short notice. As you can see the children loved the tug of war!

Hopefully see you next year. First Saturday in June!
