Portsmouth Summer Fair "Green" Event of the Year!

Its back again! A little later this year, just like the spring ;-) ……………………….

Saturday, 21st September 2013
Victoria Park
11am - 5pm

About 6,000 visitors come to the fair in 2012! That's 2,000 more than 2011. The Exhibitors, Caterers and Attractions were flat out all day; many selling out! And no child could possibly have been bored that day. This year - more food outlets, more stalls, a larger therapy area, two music stages, and a much higher focus on the message – being green. No matter how big or small an Organisation or Charity you are, if you are about being ‘green’, local, hand-made, organic, vegetarian/vegan, re-useable, recycled or Fairtrade, you need to be at this event!

3m x 3m Pitches cost Charities - £20
Businesses - £30
Large businesses - £45
(plus any costs for table/chair hire).

Exhibitors, caterers & attractions interested in attending this year, are encouraged to use online booking as it is not only much more environmentally friendly, it is also much easier for you, and for PCAN.
Please provide the following by 30th June 2013:-
* Completed Booking Form – (downloadable here) (noting whether tables/chairs required).

* Online payment, or Cheque in post, for appropriate amount.
* Completed Risk Assessment – (model document downloadable here).
* Proof of £5m public liability insurance (if an issue PCAN may be able to help).

There’s more information (and photos from previous fairs) at www.portsmouthsummerfair.co.uk, or you could like the Event Facebook page to receive updates - Portsmouth Summer Fair (please share this with other people).

Details of what to do on the day will be sent to participants nearer the time

And finally! Please be aware of important changes in Terms & Conditions:-
All possible measures to ensure Food is Vegetarian/Vegan, local, organic,Fairtrade.
All possible measures to use recycled/re-usable materials (cups, cutlery etc.).

HELP! If you, or anyone you know, can give PCAN some much needed help at all on the day with setting up, ushering, etc. etc., please do let them know!
