Help and take part

Please help and take part

The Bedford Park Festival is a two-week arts and community event and we rely on the time and support generously given by local people and businesses to help make it happen. See below - and watch here for more details about how you can help.

Please contact Nicola Chater for more information or St Michael & All Angels Parish Office. Please contact Torin Douglas to sign up to the St Michael's email newsletter or discuss sponsorship and other commercial opportunities.
