THE future of the ever-expanding Hatherleigh Festival will be discussed at a meeting in Hatherleigh at the beginning of next month.

Next year will be the tenth annual art, music and theatre festival in Hatherleigh, and the event each July continues to draw a wide range of national and international performers and exhibitors.

Clare Gladstone, festival secretary says all thoughts, ideas, and suggestions would be welcome, as the future of the festival depends on the support of the community.

Prior to the informal discussion about the festival taking place at 8pn in The George Hotel in Hatherleigh on Thursday, October 7, the organising committee will hold its annual meeting at 7.30pm.

Please feel free to come to either or both meetings.
