We hope that, despite everything, you have a pleasant Christmas and enjoy better prospects in 2022.
We are hoping to hold the following events inn 2022 – circumstances permitting:-
The Ledbury Big Breakfast 2022
At the end of January 2021 we had to hold a virtual Big Breakfast because of restrictions then ruling.
This year preparations are underway for a real Big Breakfast 2022 over the weekend Friday 28th, Saturday 29th and Sunday 30th January. Now postponed to 11th to 13th March.
All local food venues in the “breakfast industry” in Ledbury and district are keen to be part of this and are looking forward to serving you with a special breakfast or with local breakfast products for you to take to eat at home.
We are very conscious of the unknowns of the latest Covid variant and will be reviewing the feasibility and general safety of holding the event as planned, as things may change. It may be possible to postpone or hold another virtual breakfast if we can’t go ahead as planned.
The Ledbury Celebration 2022
We are pleased to announce that we are also preparing for Ledbury’s celebration of local food and drink, poetry, music and heritage – the Ledbury Celebration – on Sunday 10 July.
The event will give local food producers the opportunity to tempt you with their wares. It follows the tradition of celebrating local food and drink on the last day of the Ledbury Poetry Festival.
We plan to hold the event again in St Katherine’s next to the historic Master’s House – a background for music and poetry to enrich the event.
Again our concern is that it will be safe to hold this popular open air event in July.
Let’s hope!
And finally…
Have you applied for the Herefordshire Shop Local Card loaded with £15 to spend in local businesses? You can apply for this at https://www.herefordshire.gov.uk/business-1/shop-local.
With this someone has suggested you can bring double benefits – here’s how:
- Use the card to buy locally produced food or drink in a local shop – helping the local economy.
- Donate the equivalent that you spend to Ledbury Food Bank – find out how at https://www.ledburyfoodbank.org/index.html#help
