Beverley Carnival will take place on 21st July at Beverley High School, the first event organised by the Tyas Foundation, a local charity that supports vulnerable young people in the East Riding.
Founder John Robinson, who has Whites Restaurant in the Beverley Georgian Quarter, started the charity as a wedding gift for his wife, he told HU17.net;
“At our wedding we did all the food and had a bar. Instead of having a free bar I used the money to start to start this charity.”
“My wife Liz is a primary school teacher and it seemed like a nice present to put something in place that will help youngsters in the local area.”
“This is the first ever event for us and is should be a great day for all the family. There will be a number of craft stalls, food stands and also competitions.”
“For the kids there will be a mini fun fair and plenty of demonstrations including birds of prey and chainsaw woodcarving.”
John is also hoping to find a local unsung hero to open the event, he added;
“I would like to appeal to people to nominate someone from the community to open the carnival.
“We would really like to get someone out there who has done something for others and I urge anyone who can think of such a person to contact me.”
“Most of all though I hope people come along and have a great day out with all the family and support a very good local cause.”
There are still a few stalls available for the event which takes place on the Sunday 21st July from 10am until 4pm. Entrance to the carnival is just £2 for adult and £1 for concessions.
