Our members ‘ran’ a stall at the famous Shipston Wool Fair on Bank Holiday Monday, which celebrated it’s10th anniversary this year. 

The purpose of SAFAG members attending the Wool Fair was to offer support or advice to anyone in the local community who is concerned about flooding and to update everyone about the 150 +’slow the flow’ natural flood management interventions that have been installed (with another 150 planned) upstream of Shipston.

We were pleased that we received lots of interest from the community during the day with many information leaflets handed out. The Bank Holiday event also produced some useful contacts for the group.
