Launch of the Droitwich Appeal
At the Festival, an appeal was launched for the restoration of the Barge Lock on the Droitwich Canal. The appeal was kicked off by a donation of £5,000 from the waterway recovery group, who thus became the first Gold Patrons of the project. This group is at the presentation of the plaque commemorating this status.
