If you know of any other opportunity for informal fundraising, however small, please encourage it to happen. This could be an event already happening where a Festival tin can be shaken or it could be a special event you organise - a cake sale, a car wash, whatever. Not only do these small events bring in bits of money but they are also ways of raising the profile of Sharrow Festival and encouraging other people to become involved.

We really enjoyed Sharrow Festival 2011 ~ here are links to some great images from the day with many thanks to the contributers:
