If you wish to contribute in a different way we always welcome your help.
If you would like to become a ‘Friend of Alford Craft Market’ and spend an hour or two welcoming visitors at the gate over the bank holiday weekends we would love to hear from you. The craft market is run entirely by a small committee of volunteers and we are finding it hard to cover all the jobs between us, so if you can lend a hand with this vital task please contact us: alfordcraftmarket@gmail.com
