We expected the fete to be cancelled because of
the changeable weather on the day but no, the
place was a throng of bodies from early on
sampling all of the stalls and attractions. The food
and drink on sale was outstanding and the arena
had something going on all the time. Great seeing
the birds of prey up close and in action. The
inflatable section was great for the children. More
more more……..
What an absolutely fantastic fete despite the
weather not playing ball. Full appreciation to all the
volunteers who worked so hard made it all possible
and such an enjoyable day to remember
HAVE YOUR SAY ON ANY TOPIC
Well done Cradley and Storridge
you have done it again. The Jubilee
revived memories of the Crowns of
Cradley and the Three Villages
festival which harnessed the talent
from those who live here
TALKING POINT

Being new comers to the
village we didn’t know what to
expect but were stunned by
the layout and variety and
shear scope of offerings of the
fete. We know we are living
where community still has
meaning. We made the right
decision to live here. Kids
agree

We went to the bonfire( sorry beacon),
the fete and also the jubilee supper in
Storridge village hall and had a great
time. All well organised and a joy. We
were looking forward to the picnic but
the weather was against us.- More
events like these please
What a beacon it could be seen from miles
around and I couldn’t see one bigger
anywhere. How the hell does this small village
get so much together in such a short time so
successfully? Exceptional Fete
We had so many comments regarding the Jubilee
celebrations that we cannot unfortunately print them all
here but thank you for all those who commented
Everyone involved in organising and holding the events
were volunteers from the community. People just like
yourselves who willingly gave their time and talents.
They took on a lot of hard work to ensure that these many
events went off as hitch free as possible.
They aren’t super hero’s just people who want to put
something back into their community which they are part
of.
Anyone can do it and there are many organisations in and
around the villages who are ready to welcome new blood
to strengthen the community.
REMEMBER, IT IS YOUR COMMUNITY-
YOU MAKE IT OR YOU BREAK IT!
