Carnivals – 2015

One of the many volunteers who work tirelessly to ensure the success of the carnival, without their time and efforts there would be no carnival.

Yeadon has held a carnival for over a century, the donations were once given to the local hospital fund in the days before the NHS was founded in the 1940s, now the monies raised are donated to charities.
