As well as profiling the charities we’re supporting this year, highlighting the street food vendors and more, we thought it important to showcase some of the hard-working volunteers behind the scenes.
Organising it all takes time, effort and a great deal of experience, and the team behind Bracknell Ale & Cider Festival have been around a while. Here’s the thoughts of co-founder Michael Keen.
