Peter Watts of Point Three CIC has announced there will be a consultation for all schools and community groups in and around Wellington to take forward an initiative to increase the number of floats in the carnival next year.

“In recent years, many groups have had to resort to walking entries due to the complex requirements in entering a lit float. Point Three will work with schools and community groups and VOSA to get as many as possible on traditional carnival floats next year.”

The consultation was welcomed by Dave Rylatt, Chair of the Wellington Carnival Committee, who said, “Any initiative which supports Wellington Carnival is welcome and it would be fantastic if people can join in the carnival on traditional floats.

Greg Dyke, the Clerk to Wellington Town Council said “The Town Council applaud this initiative. It is always pleased to lend its general support to anything that might help improve the carnival for both the spectators and those taking part.”

The consultation starts next week, with questionnaires being sent out and if anyone has any queries, call Peter Watts on 07761 485657.
