I WANT to thank the organisers, performers, attendees and everyone who made Head for the Hills festival such a fantastic success last weekend.
I visited with my family on Sunday and we had a brilliant day out.
It really is a festival which has something for everyone and it continues to go from strength to strength.
Events like this, delivered by the incredible team at The Met, part funded by Arts Council England and supported by local Bury businesses, show the importance of public and private investment in our cultural institutions and activities.
And the boost to the local economy is so important to small businesses in Ramsbottom and beyond.
Here’s to an even bigger and better festival in 2018!
