The seventh Ledbury Community Day was on Saturday 8th June, 2019.
It was a great time to discover what groups and organisations serving Ledbury and District do, how they can help you and how you can help them in all kinds of ways.
Highlights that year included
- meeting our Army Cadets,
- trying your hand at Bowls at the Bowling Club and the Community Centre,
- riding on a Fire Engine,
- exploring the magic of bell-ringing under the Market House,
- trying out fitness equipment courtesy of Halo,
- finding out about Ledbury Scouts’ 100th Anniversary and
- the Maritime Cadets’ replica field gun.
