Thanks to all helpers, musicians and everyone who contributed to make this a successful event.

Bradpole councillors have agreed in principle to host a second Community Picnic in 2018. You have provided many ideas on what activities you would like to see. This is a Community event and we ask volunteers to come forward to help make this an even better event than in 2017. Please get in touch if you would like to register your interest. Contact
