This year the Festival invites everyone to express their vision of
the post-pandemic future of our area by contributing to a
community writing project.
Setting the inspirational ball rolling, PBF has published a piece
from each of the Thread Leaders right here on the website, and on
its Facebook page.
Each Thread Leader has a dedicated email address so you can
send pictures, photos, maps and, of course words.
Then interact directly with the Leaders who will prepare all the
material for publication here and possibly in the C&B News.
Click here to investigate the three threads
the topics and leaders.
The PBF programme will be featuring and publishing a celebration
