In the parish tent there was an opportunity to meet the councillors and see what your Parish Council is all about.

Our youth worker was also there with a range of activities you could get involved with to help us commemorate the WW1 Centenary.

On the field were more stalls, cream teas & traditional games. Many joined in our spinney bug hunt and tried out their acting skills with our very own Duston Players.

Free entertainment on the stage with the Silly Soapy magic show and live music from Sara Spade and the Noisy Boys plus much more.

RSPCA hosted a dog show
