Who We Are
The Fair is run by local volunteers and requires an incredible, often unseen, amount of hard work and input in order to keep it running (sort of) smoothly. Without the work of this diverse group of people, no matter what they do, the Fair simply would not happen. The term well-oiled machine may seem an overstatement to some, but to render Fair Day a success, there are a lot of little cogs all having to work in their own way and at the right time, and the failure of even one could potentially bring the whole thing limping to a halt, so I’d say we all do pretty well to make it happen! Of course, there wouldn't be much of a Fair without visitors either, so thanks to all those that pop in year on year to join us in our celebrations.
Volunteer
Widecombe Fair is run by volunteers. Whatever your skill or enthusiasm, there is a way for everyone to get involved, and we always welcome anyone wanting to help out in any way; as you might imagine, it is quite an undertaking (but great fun all the same)! If you are interested in volunteering to help, either as part of the organisational team or on Fair Day itself, do contact us or come along to one of our informal evening meets, which will be advertised both on this site and on our Facebook page well in advance.
