A Message from our Chairman

Dear Stall holders and Entertainers

Thank you very much for your contribution to Saturday’s Selly Oak Festival. We had a good turnout although lower than we had hoped due to the weather. The contribution of our stall holders is important for this community event so thanks very much for your efforts. Thanks especially to the University of Birmingham and Robert Wilkinson’s Fun Fair for their financial sponsorship and to The Pampered Pet Company, Where’s Mary, Fireworks Cheerleaders and Keresley K9s for the free entertainments. The festival really would be poorer without you.

Festival day is here!

The festival will go ahead today - with a revised timetable if necessary (because of the weather).

See you all there.
