Berkeley Group join our merry band of supporters

We are pleased to announce that the Berkeley Group are sponsoring the printing for the Plumstead Make Merry this year, and also the inflatables area run by Inflat-a-bros so that we can offer free activities to children throughout the day.  There will be two bouncy castles, a soft play area for the pre-schoolers, and even a giant Connect 4 game.

Berkeley Group will also be running a free activity workshop to create a large ‘Plumstead’ mosaic that we hope will be used by local organisations after the festival.

They will engage with the local community to showcase the work that they do with local schools including Plumstead Manor, to teach children and young people about jobs in construction and to encourage more girls to work in this sector.

You will be able to find them next to the inflatables area at the festival.
