THE Knighton Show and Carnival Committee need more committee members and helpers on show day.

Recently members of the committee and their supporters spent the morning at Brookside Square Knighton talking to local people and trying to find new helpers.

The annual event takes lots of planning, there are also fundraising events to organise and many other things that need to be in place before the day.

Preparations for this years show on August 26 are going well but if new committee members are not found soon the 2018 show will be unlikely to happen.

Anyone interested in joining the committee are invited to the meetings on June 15, 7.30pm at the RAFA club and then every third Thursday of the month.

Chairman Mat O’Rouke said “Here in Knighton we put on a great show and carnival as we have done for years but without more helpers this will not be able to continue. So please if you can just spare a few hours once a month, come to our meeting and help keep the show going for future generations to enjoy”.
