The organisers of the Fulready Horse Show know all about battling on alone. The show has been running successfully for some years, attracting riders from a wide area, and locals too. Most of the work is done by just two people, and they have approached the parish council for some money to give it a healthy future. No decision will be made before May but councillors are enthusiastic about the idea, especially if a wider community event can be built around it for both Ettington and Fulready.

We have asked the organisers, Lee and Jane, to come to the annual parish meeting and tell people about the show, and how people might help to add new features to it.
