Organisers of Mold Food & Drink Festival held every September on New Street, Mold, are looking for people to join their organising committee. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Run entirely by volunteers with little external funding, the food festival has gone from strength to strength with visitors increasing year-on-year. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Now, as the two-day extravaganza enters its 15th year, the organisers are looking for extra people to come on board. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Festival co-chairs Richard Howells and Gwenan Roberts said bolstering the organising committee’s numbers would help ‘future-proof’ the festival which every year provides a platform for more than 100 food and drink producers. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Richard said: “Preparing, planning and staging Mold’s leading festival is a year-round project. It takes hard work and effort to deliver, and our volunteers give up their time for
free to stage the event. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

We are a small committee of determined people who want to do something great for Flintshire and are looking for like-minded people to join us. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

“We’re after people with different skills to complement our great group. All you need is a willingness to join in, be able to commit to monthly meetings, be prepared to take on a role or task and free over the festival weekend. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

“We have a wide range of roles available, the committee is made up of a lovely bunch of people and anyone joining us would be made most welcome.” ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​
