Hobby Horse Club at The Bandstand

Each morning, Zoe, Peter, and Evie from Inspiration Creative get all generations singing and dancing together – and wearing some very strange outfits. They are ably supported by our wonderful band-in-residence Giddy Yup and mayhem is provided by the Hooden Horses – the living embodiment of the festival logo and Clarence the Dragon makes a much-anticipated appearance too.  Zoe and Peter are BSL Level 3 signers and will be using BSL throughout the week, encouraging inclusion for everyone. More details on their Facebook page for year-round activities with Inspiration Creative.
