Belford Community Group Projects/News

Belford Community group held their first ever community market recently and it has been hailed as a resounding success. With stalls offering locals and visitors alike the chance to buy products from water colours and jewellery to plants, wood carvings and postcards.

“It was really superb effort by all concerned” said organiser Lindsey Nicholson. “ We had about 300 people coming through during the morning and we intend to hold the market on the first Saturday of every month in future. What was particularly nice was that people from the village all came in and had a chat when meeting each other so it became something of a social occasion as well.”
