HYNDBURN BOROUGH COUNCIL TO CELEBRATE 50TH ANNIVERSARY WITH 50 EVENTS... ...Hyndburn Borough Council are encouraging local organisations and groups to host community events, as they look to promote 50 events as part of their 50th anniversary celebrations.

A brand-new portal has been created for community events, which are taking place across the borough in 2024, to be uploaded on. Events can be anything from community bring and buy sales and school summer fetes, to larger music festivals. There have already been a number of confirmed events for this year including Oak Fest, the #AmazingAccrington Soapbox Challenge, Eco Fest, Oswaldtwistle Carnival, Armed Forces Day at Oak Hill Park and many more. When events have been uploaded to the portal, Hyndburn Borough Council can then help your event reach a wider audience, with free promotion through their website and social media channels.

A quick and easy process, the new events portal is aimed to help connect residents with exciting local events. As part of Hyndburn Borough Council’s 50th anniversary, #AmazingAccrington are also researching 50 facts about Hyndburn, which will then be printed and handed to Year 3 school children at Accrington Stanley’s big shirt giveaway in September. Have you got an interesting fact about Hyndburn? Send it to editor@amazingaccrington.co.uk by 4pm on Friday 28th June 2024.
