The staging of this event needs a willing army of volunteers, both year-round (planning starts in January!) and during the week of the Show itself. Due to recent retirements, numbers are dwindling, with a desperate shortage of people at both committee level and practical helpers.
Help is needed during the week leading up to the Show to transform one large, empty field into a “mini village”, and then return the field to its usual state afterwards. Volunteers are also required for Show day itself to help out with a variety of tasks.
Or you might be interested in helping out with the running of a particular showing section – there are plenty to choose from!
Or you might consider joining the Committee which meets about seven times during the year to make sure all the arrangements are on track!
Anyone who feels they are able to give some time in any capacity, or would like more information, is invited to email secretary@keighleyshow.co.uk.
