This year our well dressing and flower festival will be an event with a difference. We’re staying at home!  

Our theme is: ‘Saying THANK YOU: paying tribute to your Covid-19 Heroes’ and we’re inviting you (all ages!) to join in. From Monday 15 June we would love you to create a display in your window or outside your house, using any medium you like (e.g. artwork, poetry, flowers). Your hero can be anyone or any organisation who has made a difference to you during these difficult times and to whom you want to say a special thank you.

 During the Patronal weekend (19–21 June) the Well will be decorated with memories of past well dressings, and a floral display.  Do drop by to take a look during your daily exercise. Sadly  we can’t put on a ‘Big tea’ this year but how about having a cream tea at 4 pm at your house on Sunday afternoon (socially distancing of course!).

Please take pictures of your displays and hold on to your artwork or poetry. We plan to put on a celebratory display when the lockdown is lifted.

Updates and information for the event can be found on this website and on  HcNCoronavirus Support Group Facebook page, or telephone 01480 496958.
