Cullingworth’s popular Scarecrow Festival will be taking place during the weekend of September 7 and 8.

The theme for this year is ‘CULLYWOOD’ – in other words, Hollywood comes to Cullingworth!

Organisers would like everyone to encourage their neighbours to have a go at creating some eye-catching and imaginative scarecrows.

Since it began 11 years ago, the event has raised thousands of pounds for Sue Ryder’s Manorlands hospice in Oxenhope and the Yorkshire Air Ambulance. Call 01535 272325 for further information about how to take part.
