“Just over half of the exhibitors usually receive funding. Anyone over the age of eight can vote. You will be allocated 10 votes and you must use them all or none of your votes will count.

“Please come along and vote for 10 community groups you feel deserve financial support from the Tak£500+ organisation.

“Call in and meet some of the BOUNCE team. Ask as many questions as you wish. Find out all about us and how it all works.
