Story:Vivien Urwodhi
Abbeyfield park was full of peopleon Sunday 8th July 2012 who came to meet up, to unite with old friends and families and created an harmonious atmosphere.
The stage was presented by MC Nige, who introduced the performers through the day. The field was filled with food, children’s activities and information from charities.
I spoke to some of the stallholders. Gillian Andrew showed me her stall with the 186th Sheffield Girl Guides. They aim to raise money to enable them to travel to Austria in 2013. The Rock Christian Centre contributed a lot to make the event happen – both a donation and huge volunteer effort. Beverley from the Shiloh Church was there to cheer on their youth, performing gospel songs. She added they’ve made her very proud.
