Since local volunteers first started running the festival in 1998, the family-friendly event has helped to raise over £70,000 for local projects, groups and organisations in the village and local area.

The money has povided much needed help for good causes such as the Milton Children's Hospice, the Liam Fairhurst appeal and local groups such as MAGPAS, HEART, and the Church, Toddler and Youth Groups.
