Youth groups urged to apply for slice of £15,000 Spalding beerfest profit

After the huge success of the first-ever Spalding Beer and Music Festival, organisers have turned their attention to distributing the £15,000 profit.

Youth groups, clubs, organisations and schools in and around Spalding are being invited to apply for a slice of the fund.

The event last month was jointly organised by Spalding and District Round Table and Spalding Ladies’ Circle, with support from Spalding and District Young Farmers’ Club, Mark Le Sage and The Priors Oven landlord Charlie Rawlings.

Tabler and Festival chairman Sam Nundy said: “We were overwhelmed with the amount raised at the event and we thank everyone for their support.
“It’s a fabulous amount of profit which will enable us to do a great deal to help youths in the local community.

“I would encourage people to get in touch as soon as possible and we’ll do our very best to support as much as we can as soon as we can.”

To apply for funds email [email protected] including brief details of the applicant, the desired amount and the intended use.

St John Ambulance provided support for the festival and will receive £1,500 for a defibrillator.
