Cardigan Castle Needs Your Help This Summer!

Cardigan Castle has to raise £150,000 from the community in order to achieve the £11million European funding to continue with the restoration project. We have a number of fund-raising events this summer and are looking for people to help out in a variety of ways, including: 1 – 5 July Biblathon: As people read the Bible around the clock from cover to cover, we are looking for people to make refreshments, help time-keep and take sponsorship entry fees 23 July – 20 August Archaeology Dig at the castle: people can help with digging, cleaning, sorting and recording, and making refreshments, or just come along to watch and learn from the archaeologists 28 July Coffee morning at the Guildhall: volunteers needed to help serve teas & coffees, sell raffle tickets and entertain the crowds 1 August Cardigan Show: we will have a table at the show, selling raffle tickets and ducks for the duck race on 11 August and need general help manning the stand 4-11 August National Eisteddfod: if anyone is going to the Eisteddfod and can spare an hour to help man Cardigan Castle’s stand, please get in touch! 11 – 12 August River & Food Festival: help on the castle stand, selling raffle tickets, serving teas & coffees (ideally dressed up in medieval clothes!). Also, if anyone’s interested in holding or joining craft lessons (e.g. knitting and sewing), please let us know Contact: 01239 615131
